NEVAC - de Nederlandse Vacuüm Vereniging - www.nevac.nl

De Nederlandse Vacuüm Vereniging (NEVAC), opgericht op 13 april 1962, bevordert de uitwisseling van kennis op het gebied van vacuümtechniek en gebieden waarin vacuüm een grote rol speelt. De vereniging doet dit door het organiseren van wetenschappelijke bijeenkomsten, excursies en een uitgebreid cursusprogramma. Op dit gebied is er tevens samenwerking met de Belgische Vacuümvereniging BelVac. Leden hebben hierbij toegang tot elkaars activiteiten.
De NEVAC telt ruim 300 wetenschappers, technici en vertegenwoordigers. Daarnaast zijn er ruim 40 bedrijven lid. De vereniging draait geheel op de enthousiaste deelname van vrijwilligers uit de industrie en de universiteit.
Een paar hoogtepunten uit de recente NEVAC geschiedenis:
- De NEVAC organiseerde het 12e International Vacuum Congres (IVC-12/ICSS-8) in Den Haag in 1992 en de 17e Europese Conferentie over Surface Science (ECOSS-17) in Twente, 1997.
- De NEVAC organiseert gemiddeld zes nationale bijeenkomsten per jaar met onderwerpen varieërend van fundamentele oppervlaktefysica tot toepassingen van de vacuümtechnologie.
- Het NEVACBLAD verschijnt 4x per jaar en dient als contactblad voor de leden. Het bevat doorgaans 3-5 artikelen op het gebied van vacuümtoepassingen. Een nummer per jaar wordt geheel gevuld door studenten, naar aanleiding van een zeer succesvolle jaarlijkse bijeenkomst waarop studenten het programma verzorgen.
- De NEVAC heeft een eigen Leerstoel in de vacuümtechnologie, aan de Technische Universiteit Delft.
- Ongeveer elke twee jaar wordt er een buitenlandse excursie georganiseerd. In 2001 was dat met 40 deelnemers naar Italië en in 2002 met 22 deelnemers naar Magdenburg en Dresden.
