The 25th International Conference on Solid Compounds of Transition Elements and the XVI International Conference on Crystal Chemistry of Intermetallic Compounds
will take place in Lublin, Poland on June 15-18, 2026
|
Two in one – Your 2026 meeting on transition-metal and intermetallic compounds The well-known International Conference on Solid Compounds of Transition Elements has, since its creation in 1965, been organized in Austria, Czechia, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom. At a committee meeting in 2021, it was decided that the 25th edition would take place in Ukraine, in the city of Lviv, which has a long tradition in solid-state chemistry. Since 1971, the Ivan Franko National University of Lviv has been organizing the International Conference on Crystal Chemistry of Intermetallic Compounds and, given the fields covered by the two conference series, it was suggested to merge the 25th edition of SCTE and the 16th edition of IMC in 2026. This exceptional joint meeting will therefore serve as a forum to present and discuss new results concerning the synthesis, characterization, properties, and applications of solid compounds of d– and f-elements, as well as of intermetallic and related compounds. Since the decision was made, the geopolitical situation in Europe has changed and it is currently not realistic to hold |
It would have been a pleasure for us to welcome you to our beloved city, which is an important cultural centre with traces of the Polish and Austro-Hungarian heritage everywhere, but also the university city of Lublin is a beautiful and pleasant city with features common to this part of Europe. With the help of the members of the two Advisory Committees, we are trying to create a rich and interesting scientific programme covering different aspects, and we would be happy to include also your contribution, either as an oral presentation or as a poster. On behalf of the Organizing Committee, I warmly invite you to SCTE&IMC in Lublin – and to Lviv once the war is over.
