18th International Workshop on Inelastic  Ion-Surface Collisions (IISC-18)

September 26 – October 1, 2010, Gatlinburg, Tennessee, USA

Scope and History

The International Workshop in Inelastic Ion-Surface Collisions (IISC) covers the fundamental aspects of the inelastic interactions of particles with surfaces. It includes the following topics:

  • Energy loss of particles at surfaces
  • Charge exchange between particles and surfaces
  • Electron, photon and secondary ion emission due to particle impact on surfaces
  • Ion induced desorption, electronic and kinetic sputtering
  • Defect formation, surface modification and nanostructuring
  • Laser induced desorption
  • Scattering of atoms, ions, molecules and clusters
  • Sputtering, fragmentation, cluster and ion formation in SIMS and SNMS
  • Cluster/Molecular and highly charged ion beams
