XXV Jubilee Polish-Czech Seminar Structural and Ferroelectric Phase Transitions

The idea of regular scientific meetings of physicists involved in ferroelectric research in Poland and Czechoslovakia was a joint initiative of Bożena Hilczer and Jan Fousek, born after the success of the first such event in Błażejewko, Poland in 1979. This first Seminar was organized by collaborating scientists from the Ferroelectric Lab of the Institute of Molecular Physics of the Polish Academy of Sciences and the Dielectric Department of the Institute of Physics of the Czechoslovak Academy of Sciences. Over the years, the Seminar evolved into a recognized international conference and a forum of presentation of recent results, unconstrained discussions and initiating joint studies. The Seminar results not only in scientific integration but also in close cooperation and friendship. After 45 years of history, we would like to hold the Jubilee XXV Seminar at the conference centre in Hotel Inter Szablewski on the shore of Lake Dymaczewskie, not far from the place where the idea of joint conferences was born. We invite you cordially to the XXV Jubilee Polish-Czech Seminar on Structural and Ferroelectric Phase Transitions, on May 6-10, 2024 at Lake Dymaczewskie in Poland.
