International Symposium on
"Multifunctional Organic Materials and Devices"

-- from organic nano-structural materials to complex molecules in physics, chemistry and biology --

Narashino Campus
Toho University, Funabashi, Chiba 274-8510, Japan
December 11-12, 2009

Scope:
Materials with novel integrated properties stimulate the recent development of the electronic, photonic and spintronic devices and have been attracting growing attention. This symposium focuses on recent hot topics of such organic materials and devices in physics, chemistry and biochemistry. A wide range of compounds from small conjugated/aromatic molecules and metal complexes to nano- and mesoscopic materials will be covered.

Topics of the symposium include:

• Electronic transport and magnetic properties of zero-gap organic conductors

• Novel optical, magnetic properties of organic compounds

• Quantum transport and phase transitions in low-dimensional organic nano-structures

• Advanced organic molecular devices

• Spin crossover phenomena

• Supramolecules

• Biophotonics

• Photoresponsive materials for cell and molecular biology

• Novel techniques for nano-material and molecular design

Participation fee: Free

Registration: Participants are kindly requested to make registration through the symposium web-site.

This symposium is supported by Toho University and by the High-Tech Research Center Program of the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports Science and Technology, Japan.
