First Call for Papers:
Deadline October 31, 2008
The 36th Conference
on the Physics and Chemistry of Surfaces and Interfaces (PCSI-36)
will be held at the Hotel Mar Monte in Santa Barbara, California
from Sunday at 3:00p.m., January 11, through Thursday noon, January
15.
The annual PCSI
conference is devoted to achieving a fundamental understanding of
the physical, chemical, biological, structural, optical, magnetic
and electrical properties of surfaces and interfaces. These studies
include characterization of growth processes, interfacial phenomena,
transport and the structure and influence of defects. Generous
amounts of discussion time will be included in the program in order
to emphasize the workshop character and to stimulate the exchange of
new ideas. The abstract
deadline is October 25, 2008.
Later abstracts will be accepted, if space is available.
