The NanoMetrology France 2017 topics include, but not limited to :

• Methodologies for the quantitative characterization of physical and chemical parameters of nanomaterials (AFM, STM, SEM, TEM, Mass spectrometry, etc)
• Extension and standardization of characterization Methodologies at the nanometer scale (engineered nanoparticles, nanobiotechnologies, nanoelectronics, thin films/nanocoatings
• Presentation of innovative studies reporting new results in the characterization of nanomaterials and nanosystems
• Definition and realization of standards for nanometer scale characterizations (reference materials, measurement standards, etc)
• Divulgation of good laboratory practice and traceability in nanoscale metrology
• Modeling and simulations for nanometrology
• Society and regulation issues
