US-Japan Workshop on Advances in Organic/Inorganic Hybrid Materials
Abstract
Inorganic polymers and hybrid materials continue to attract tremendous attention both academically and industrially. Structures bearing inorganic motifs display unique properties as compared to conventional organic polymers, and these features can be exploited for a wide range of applications. The US-Japan workshop on ÒAdvances in Organic/Inorganic Hybrid MaterialsÓ showcased synthetic strategies to build inorganic polymers and it highlighted the properties of these novel materials. The symposium has a rich history of bringing together the United States and Japan to share ideas and information. The workshop consisted of five sessions, each with a different theme that brought a balanced series of presentations from US and Japanese researchers. These sessions were: (1) New Synthetic Approaches to Organic-Inorganic Hybrid Materials, (2) Conjugated Hybrid Materials for Optoelectronic Applications, (3) Nanomaterials and Nanocomposites, (4) Materials for Devices and (5) Self-Assembly and Biomedical-Related Applications. The symposium also brought together well established researchers with younger colleagues in the early stages of their careers and who had not attended this symposium previously. This symposium was held at Rutgers University in Newark, NJ. It consisted of invited and contributed talks as well as poster presentations.
