Polymer Materials (POLY)
Nanoscale Structure Formation: Synthesis and Processing
Nanoscale Structure Formation: Synthesis and Processing This session is focused on chemical approaches to the formation of new materials and structures with nanoscale organization. Such materials are expected to enable breakthroughs in a range of technologies including microelectronics, optics and biotechnology. Presentations cover selected aspects of this topic and include layer by layer assembly, multi-catalyst reactor systems, nanotubes and nanowires, new materials with tuneable dielectric constants and supramolecular systems. The presentations will be invaluable to the novice as well as the experienced researcher.
