Scope:
This session aims to foster discussion, knowledge exchange, and the development of research topics related to quantum beams (e.g., ions, electrons, photons, and related platforms), encompassing both instrumentation and advanced applications. It also highlights the integration of functional materials across diverse fields, including energy, environmental sustainability, and emerging technologies. The session is organized under the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between the Thailand Center of Excellence in Physics (ThEP) and SIT Research Laboratories. It is designed to strengthen collaborative research activities and promote active engagement between Thai and Japanese researchers. A dedicated roundtable session will serve as a key highlight, providing a platform to explore and initiate joint research proposals and future collaborative projects.
