Single Nanostructures, Nanomaterials, Aerogels and their Interactions: Combining Quantum Physics and Chemistry

International Workshop
27 - 31 August 2018

The central topics of the workshop will be on: Assemblies of nanoscale objects, many-body interactions between building blocks in such assemblies, and resulting optical and electronic properties. This workshop on interacting nanosystems will bring together theoreticians and experimentalists in the fields of materials physics and chemistry and let them interact and exchange ideas.

Topics include

  • Random, amorphous, and ordered assemblies of nanocrystal, nanocomposites and nanomaterials that demonstrate both classical and quantum properties
  • Novel two-dimensional atomically-thin systems: chemistry, physics, electronics and optics
  • Modern inorganic aerogels and their unusual properties
  • Plasmonics, photonics and optics of nanocrystal bio-assemblies
  • Dynamics of collective and many-body excitations in nanoscale systems
  • Hot plasmonic electrons and other novel quantum phenomena in metal and hybrid nanostructures
  • Potential applications and device ideas
