This prize will be awarded by the Thin Films and Surfaces Group (TFSG) of the Institute of Physics (IOP) for the best PhD thesis completed by a student member of the TFSG in the year 2011. The value of the prize is £200 and was established to encourage and recognise high quality research and scientific writing in the field of thin films and surfaces.
Nomination Process
Nominations should be made by email to the Chair of the TFSG (currently James O’Shea email: J.Oshea@nottingham.ac.uk) at any time before the closing date of 31st January 2012. The qualifying period is the calendar year 2011 during which time the thesis must have been successfully examined for a PhD and the final version submitted (theses originally submitted in 2010 are therefore eligible if they were examined in 2011).
