This workshop aims to give a comprehensive overview of existing collaborations between the Molecular Foundry and the ALS enabling research by various user groups from the nanoscience community. Nanoscience often requires researchers to combine several synthesis and characterization techniques into one experiment to be able to provide mechanistic insights into growth mechanisms, phase change, nucleation pathways, and kinetics of conformational changes or interactions between molecular constituents. During this workshop, we will provide tutorials on structural characterization methods for organic, inorganic, and biological materials that exist at the ALS as well as how user communities from these fields utilize them in combination with additional characterization and synthesis capabilities at the Molecular Foundry. Additionally, there will be tutorials on specific equipment used for multimodal characterization and presentations on case studies by users from the halide perovskite, structural biology, and polymer communities.
