6th International School on Aperiodic Crystals

1-5 September 2025, Dresden, Germany

The Max Planck Institute for Chemical Physics of Solids is pleased to host the 6th International School on Aperiodic Crystals (1 – 5 September 2025). The 6^th International School on Aperiodic Crystals is a Satellite Meeting to the 35^th European Crystallographic Meeting in Lviv and Poznan. The meeting has a broad scope, spanning topics from fundamental to applied research:

• Introduction to aperiodic crystals
• Superspace symmetry and superspace embedding
• Modulation functions
• Structure solution and refinement of modulated crystals
• Diffuse scattering
• Electronic and physical properties of aperiodic crystals
• Dynamics and phasons in aperiodic crystals
• Complex intermetallics
• High entropy alloys
• Quasicrystals
• Incommensurate magnetic structures

There will be a poster session and every participant is invited to bring their own complex and/or aperiodic structure.

   It will provide a step by step introduction to the field of  Aperiodic Crystals (incommensurately modulated phases, incommensurate composite and quasicrystals) and applications. A large part of the school is dedicated to hands on with tutorials. 

   The Registration is now open.

   A Fellowship for young scientists is available upon request and will cover part of for travel and subsistence costs for the school

    The 6th ISAC is a Satellite Meeting to the 35thEuropean Crystallographic Meeting in Lviv and Poznan.
