NIM-workshop on "Interactions in Hybrid Nanosystems"
Frauenwörth, Chiemsee, May 1-4, 2008
Deadline for registration is now expired!
Scientific Program:
The workshop will highlight fundamental physical phenomena in hybrid systems consisting of organic and inorganic materials. Combined with modern nanolithography and self-organization processes, hybrid systems are expected to exhibit novel physical properties. They may even lead to the development of, e.g., new photonic and spintronic nanodevices. For this, a detailed understanding of (i) chemical, electronic and magnetic properties of interfaces, (ii) the efficient energy and charge transfer as well as (iii) the dynamics at interfaces plays a key role. The workshop will bring together experts in the emerging field of hybrid nanosystems, both, from theory and experiment.
Topics:
- Energy Transfer in Hybrid Nanosystems
- Charge Transfer in Hybrid Nanosystems
- Spin Transfer in Hybrid Nanosystems
- Charge Transport in Hybrid Nanosystems
