Abstract: Let $ G$ be a simply connected algebraic group of type $ B$, $ C$ or $ D$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $ 2$. We construct a Springer correspondence for the dual vector space of the Lie algebra of $ G$. In particular, we classify the nilpotent orbits in the duals of symplectic and orthogonal Lie algebras over algebraically closed or finite fields of characteristic $ 2$.
