I started writing a paper on my computer program.
At this stage, it's time to release a version
which could be used by some researchers outside.
However, before this could be done, the software must be
documented, which is a tedious part of work :)

During the last month I was preparing the postconference paper. Since the confrence materials from EMRS 2014 symp. I could be published in journal "Sol-gel science and technlogy" the proposed paper was entitled "Photochemical silver nanoparticles deposition on sol-gel TiO2 for plasmonic properties utilization". Just after the paper submition I was preparing the scientific project proposal to National Center of Science. The project on " The process parameters influence on photochemical deposition of metal nanoparticles on the surface of titanium dioxide on plasmonic properties of obtained nanostructures" which was the continuation of results enclosed within the submitted paper.
Within the experimental part I stated depostion from freshly obtined solution from Institute of Catalysis PAS.

This month I was preparing to pass the final examination of PhD in the field of materials science. After passing the exam I got involved in writing the article to Materials Science and Engineering. To do so, I had to first complete the experiment with plane stress compression. All experiment works were done before the end of the month.

Participation at International Meeting: CALPHAD and THERMAM. Presentation of results of liquid binaries including atomistic calculations and those based on classical equation of atoms movement. They were compared to measured data. These studies were also supplemented by semi-empirical considerations.

I May I was studying various models which link
macroscopic boundary parameters to energies of boundaries.
I've written a piece of software that
assumes an energy function with some free parameters
and tries to fit the model to data from
molecular simulations available in literature.
This will allow for determination which model
describes best the relationship between geometry and energy.
