Using Ultrafast Spectroscopic Imaging for Material Characterization from the Micron to Wafer Scale
This webinar is hosted By: Applied Spectroscopy Technical Group
28 August 2025 15:00 - 16:00
Eastern Daylight/Summer Time (US & Canada) (UTC -04:00)Advanced materials research powers the miniaturization and increased performance of devices vital to our connected and electrified world. In this webinar hosted by the Applied Spectroscopy Technical Group, Torben Purz will demonstrate how ultrafast imaging, with its hyperspectral, hypertemporal, and volumetric capabilities, can benefit material characterization. The webinar will explore applications ranging from flakes of 2D material to process engineering in compound semiconductor manufacturing.
