Solid-State Chemistry (2)
Solid State Chemistry: New Materials and Advances in Synthetic Techniques, I
This symposium will serve to highlight recent innovations and the creative aspects involved in both solid-state syntheses and the structural chemistry of new solids, ranging from oxides to intermetallics. The symposium topics include modified and conventional solid-state methods, hydrothermal and solvothermal syntheses, and flux syntheses and other newly emerging types of synthetic methods.
