Chemical Control With Electrons and Photons
Location: University Centre Obergurgl, Ötz Valley, Austria
Deadline for applications: 27 September 2008
Programme and applications: accessible online at www.esf.org/conferences/08261
Grants: are available for young researchers to cover the conference fee and travel costs.
Scope: The aim of this meeting is to (i) promote the awareness of a common research basis and (ii) to discuss new opportunities and directions such as facile processes for surface functionalization and nanostructuring that may be developed through collaboration between the different communities. This will include not only research on fundamental aspects of molecular fragmentation and chemical control but also highlight the applications in the areas of surface, material science and the ability to extend such knowledge to the study of biomolecular systems (e.g. in development of DNA as a functional engineering material).
Sessions will focus on:
·Chemical Control using ultrashort light pulses
·Chemical Control using low-energy electrons
·Chemical Control at the nanoscale with STM
·Plasma processing and nanofabrication
·Chemical control of biomoleculesESF Research Conferences: www.esf.org/conferences
