Abstract

This volume of the IOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering contains papers from the 17th Workshop of the European Microbeam Analysis Society (EMAS) on Modern Developments and Applications in Microbeam Analysis, which took place from the 7th to the 11th of May 2023 at the Auditorium Maximum of the Jagiellonian University, Krakow, Poland. The primary aim of this series of workshops is to assess the state-of-the-art and reliability of microbeam analysis techniques. The workshops also provide a forum where students and young scientists starting out on a career in microbeam analysis can meet and discuss with the established experts. The Krakow meeting was organised within the usual EMAS format, comprising invited plenary lectures by internationally recognised experts, poster presentations by the participants and round-table discussions on the key topics led by specialists in the field. EMAS2023 was organized in collaboration with the Institute of Metallurgy and Materials Science of the Polish Academy of Sciences, Krakow, Poland. The technical programme included the following topics: Electron probe microanalysis (EPMA); Electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD); Software tools; Focussed ion beam; Combined techniques in SEM; and materials applications of microbeam analysis and their applications. As at previous workshops, there was also a special oral session for Early Career Scientists. The best presentation by an early career scientist was awarded with an invitation to attend the 2024 Microscopy and Microanalysis meeting in Cleveland, Ohio. The prize went to Maria Wątroba, EMPA - Swiss Federal Labs. Materials Testing and Research, Thun (CH), for her presentation entitled: “Experimental analysis of plastic deformation in single-crystalline and ultrafine-grained Zn micropillars” (by M. Wątroba, W. Bednarczyk, C. Tian, J. Michler and J. Schwiedrzik). List of Acknowledgements and International Scientific Committee are available in this pdf.
