CSP - European Materials Research Society Symposium on Defect-Induced Effects in Nanomaterials
Abstract
Extensive research of defects in advanced materials has led to many important technologicalapplications. Point and extended defects have been shown to notably affect the materialsproperties. The high sensitivity of modern technologies at submicron scale has promoted theexciting opportunity of developing new advanced materials with reduced dimensionality. Defectbehaviour in nanomaterials and nanostructures has been found to differ substantially from thatobserved in bulk materials. Recent work has demonstrated spectacular optical and magneticeffects due to deliberately created defects and structures with numerous potential applications.All these activities will be discussed at the European Materials Research Society Symposium onDefect-Induced Effects in Nanomaterials to be held in Strasburg, France, June 18-22, 2018. Weplan to discuss, how such defects could be introduced controllably, categorized and controlled innanostructures. Understanding and controlling defect properties in a wide class of advancednanomaterials (2D structures, multiferroics, quantum dots and wires, etc.) could well be a key tobreakthroughs in several crucial areas of science and technology. These topics go to the heart ofdeveloping a fundamental understanding of the role that defects play in the performance of OrganicPhotovoltaics, Electrochemical Materials, Electronic sensors and Structural Materials and thus supportthe ONR 31 and 33 initiatives in these areas.Symposium program contains 15 invited and 60 oral presentations, as well as 100 posters.Totally, 185 Abstracts are received from participants from over the globe. The main results ofpresentations will be published in the peer journal ???Physica Status Solidi???.
