Research focus of the Centre:
Centre is applying the advanced methods for characterization of variety of materials. The crystal structure of materials in macro-scale can be estimate using high-resolution X-diffractometers, the structure in micro-scale can be found by electron microscope, the element content by electron microprobe and the dopants and impurities by SIMS. The electronic structure of material and chemical bonding can be studied by x-ray absorption (XANES and EXAFS) and photoelectron spectroscopy. Detailed information about all instruments gathered in the Centre can be found at: http://www.ifpan.edu.pl/SL-1/sl1home.html

Polish research projects currently run in the Centre:
In Institute of Physics are realized 74 research projects, including:
    - 62 grants financed by Polish State Committee for Scientific Research;
    - 1 so-called "ordered";
    - 11 international projects financed from abroad;
    - 23 broad research topics were realized in co-operation with foreign centres.

European research projects currently run in the Centre:
5 European projects is under negotiation.

Human resources:
The Centre engages in its activity more than 1/10 part of the Institute of Physics. It employs 43 staff members among whom 36 are directly involved in the research activity. The personal roster is the following: 2 full professors, 5 associate professors, 19 researchers with the doctor's degree, 4 assistance, 6 Ph.D. students (2 from Ukraine), and 7 technical staff.

Training possibility:
The possibility of training for scientists and Ph.D. students in applying:

high-resolution transmission electron microscope JEM 2000 EX (JEOL),

high-resolution material research diffractometer PHILIPS equipped with Bartels (440) and Bartels (220) monochromators, and Ge (1-1) analyser,

secondary ion mass spectrometer IMS 6f (CAMECA, France),

Philips diffractometer X'PERT system,

electron probe micro-analyser JXA-50A with scanning electron microscope and later X-ray energy dispersive spectrometer LINK (JOEL).

Scientific co-operation:
The links are established with 20 scientific institutions in Poland and 35 institutions in 14 European countries, mostly in Germany, France and Italy. The co-operation is held within national research projects (programs of State Committee for Scientific Research) and within international projects. Chosen as en example scientific institutions: ESRF and ILL, Grenoble, France. University of Bremen and HASYLAB at DESY, Hamburg, Germany, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, University of California, Laboratoire Leon Brillouin, Saclay, France, Laboratori Nazionali di Frascati, Italy.

Co-operation with industrial partners:
We perform expertise for electronic and machines industry.
