Scope of the conference:
The scope of the LNC'07 conference is focused on the effects of nanostructuring on materials' properties resulting in development of new materials, products and devices that demonstrate new functionalities. The topics covered also include fundamental relation between nanoscale confinement of charge, spin and photon and the electrical, magnetic optical and chemical properties of nanostructured inorganic, organic and bio-materials; the processing and properties of materials for nano-electronics and nanoporeous materials. Nano-technology based applications will be discussed, among others molecular healthcare, energy production and storage, catalysis and ICT.

This conference is organized jointly by the Institute for Nanoscale Physics and Chemistry (INPAC-K.U.Leuven), the Leuven Materials Research Center (Leuven-MRC - K.U.Leuven) and the Interuniversity Microelectronics Center (IMEC). These research centers have a strong common interest in nanoscience and nanotechnology, and therefore co-organize this event.
