[1] Multidisciplinary research and training for the understanding of processes and basic phenomena in physics and chemistry, for the development of new methodologies and applications in many field of high social and economical impact, like health, environment, energy, industrial technologies and cultural heritage.
IPCF is a multidisciplinary institute where theoretical, computational and experimental approaches are combined in specific fields of physical and chemical disciplines, namely new models and devices, environment and Soft Matter.
[2] Headquarters of the IPCF are located close to the University of Messina campus, thus enabling a continuous cultural exchange with researchers of the Science and Engineering faculties.
The IPCF technological support to the research activity is complete and of high quality, including computer assisted design, high precision mechanical workshop, micro-machining, advanced electronics, glass workshop, surface polishing and coating, free-standing thin foil preparation, laser optics design and optimisation, chemical preparations.
The innovative research activities carried out at IPCF are testified by high level peer reviewed publications, patents, scientific reports and contributions to international conferences.
