Participants who wish to present a contributed talk or a poster are required to submit a one-page abstract in PDF file using the provided Word Template.
The conference will follow its traditional single-session format, featuring 15-minute contributed oral presentations, including discussion time. Due to the three-day schedule, the total number of oral presentation slots is limited to approximately 50. All submitted abstracts will be reviewed by the Program Committee, and accepted submissions will be assigned as oral presentations, poster presentations, or both.
A limited number of presentations will be selected for extended 25-minute long talks, including discussion.
We encourage all speakers, including those selected for oral presentations, to prepare a poster to facilitate further discussion and interaction.
Please indicate your preference (oral, poster, or both) during your abstract submission.

This year, the Physical Electronics Conference will once again present awards for outstanding posters during the poster session. Posters will be evaluated based on the quality of their technical content and the clarity of their presentation.
To be eligible, the work must be presented by a graduate or undergraduate student. Cash prizes will be awarded to the top three posters: first place ($300), second place ($200), and third place ($100).
The poster prizes are provided by SPECS this year. As a part of SPECSGROUP, SPECS manufactures cutting-edge systems and components for surface analysis in UHV, based on methods like XPS, UPS, AES, ISS, STM, LEEM/PEEM, LEED, SIMS, SNMS, and HREELS. SPECS offers a variety of sources for deposition, excitation, and charge neutralization as well as analyzers, monochromators, and research microscopes like LEEM and STM. A strong focus of our work is on customized systems combining thin film preparation (e.g., MBE) with spectroscopic and microscopic options.
