2nd Topical Meeting on Spins in Organic Semiconductors
Salt Lake City, Utah, USA
4-7 February 2009
On behalf of the organizing committee we have the pleasure to invite you to participate in the 2nd Topical Meeting on Spins in Organic Semiconductors (SPINOS 2009) to be held in Salt Lake City, Utah on 4-7 February 2009. The first meeting was held in Bologna, Italy in 2007.
This topical conference
is concerned the scientific investigation of
the behavior of electronic spins in organic semiconductors. Material systems of
interest include
π-conjugated polymer and small molecular devices as well as single molecule
and carbon nanotube studies. Recent advances in the
emerging fields of organic spintronics and magnetoelectronics call for a timely
conference on this subject. In addition, the
science of triplet states in organics, and the related topic of organic
electrophosphorescence have seen many contributions from research groups around
the world.
The event will provide great opportunity for physicists, device engineers and
materials and physical chemists to meet and discuss ideas, solutions and future
issues relating to the scientific study and technical implementation of organic
semiconductor devices whose functionality is based on spins. The program is
scheduled to provide room for open discussion and interaction.
Sincerely,
Art Epstein, Ohio State University
