Photonic and Optoelectronic Materials

9 – 10 April 2018 + Add to calendar Exeter

Scientific Organisers: Dr Anna Baldycheva and Dr Ana Neves

This two day conference will focus on an emerging field of microscopy; the in-situ characterisation of novel photonic and optoelectronic materials.

Internationally known experts. including industry leaders in the field of novel photonic and optoelectronic material development will join the conference to discuss the most critical technological insights, discoveries and new practical applications in microscopy and micro-spectroscopy characterisation of metamaterials, plasmonic and photonic crystal materials.
The conference will cover fundamental techniques such as optical microscopy, TEM, SEM, AFM, Raman, and FTIR for a wide range of possible applications, from chemistry and material fabrication to nanophotonic and optoelectronic systems engineering. The conference will also include workshop with hands-on demonstrations and possibility to test participant’s samples on-site in the second day.

The conference topics will include:

2D materials
IV element-based photonic materials and devices
Chalcogenide materials
Quantum Dots and Nanowires
Organic materials
Liquid Crystals and Fluid Nanocomposites
