Graphene Week, Obergurgl, Austria

The European Science Foundation (ESF), the Austrian Science Fund (FWF) and the University of Innsbruck, Austria, are jointly organising a conference on graphene science from 2 to 7 March 2009 in Obergurgl, Austria.

Graphene Week will be entirely devoted to the rapidly progressing science and technology of atomically thin graphitic films, or graphene, including advances in the growth and manufacturing of graphene-based devices, the investigation of physical properties of graphene using a broad range of characterisation methods, and emerging applications of this new material.

Topical sessions will address graphene synthesis and its study; manufacturing of graphene p-n junctions, nanoribbons and quantum dots and their transport studies, heat transfer in graphene-based structures and hybrid circuits; optical properties of graphene and its applications in optoelectronics.

The conference is intended for researchers working on graphitic systems, or simply interested in learning more about graphene.For further information, please visit:
