The Exhibitor Workshops are a continuing feature for the AVS 54th International Symposium and Exhibition. Workshops are a series of 20-minute presentations scheduled during the technical session breaks on Tuesday and Wednesday in the Stage Area of the exhibit hall. These workshops provide insight to the latest products and services offered by the exhibitors that benefit everyone including technicians, engineers and scientists as well as fellow manufacturers.

A very exciting line up of presentations has been scheduled for the AVS-54 including topics such as: surface analysis applications/techniques/instrumentation; innovations in small dry vacuum pumps; nanoscale XPS imaging, nano-technology, biotechnology; tutorials on vacuum pumps with tips on process control and maintenance; sputter target bonding technology; AFM imaging and much more.

Admission to the Exhibitor Workshops is FREE to all AVS 54th International Symposium and Exhibition attendees.
