WORKSHOP 1

NANO -ELECTRONICS -PHOTONICS -PHONONICS -PLASMONICS -ENERGY

The fields of the Plasmonics, Nanoelectronics, Clean Energy are some of the most rapidly growing sectors of the modern science and technology. Today, many resources and investments from government agencies, research institutes and local industries are devoted to the developments of materials, processes, instrumentation, and equipment for such devices and products.

The Workshop on Plasmonics – Nanoelectronics & Clean Energy has the goal of fostering research, collaboration and providing advanced training in Plasmonics & Nanoelectronics and Energy applications of Nanotechnology in physical, chemical and engineering sciences. It will serve as a forum for scientists, engineers and industrials from all around the world where there will be exchange of information and provision of access to the latest developments of several topics covering photonics, nanoelectronics, materials, photovoltaics inorganic, organic, dyes, hybrid, device structures, system integrations, manufacturing processes, characterization and monitoring, product applications and business opportunities.
