LDSD 2011 - The Seventh International Conference on Low Dimensional Structures and Devices

LDSD 2011 will continue the success of the ’95,’97, ’99,´02, ´04 and ´07 meetings, which were held in Singapore, Portugal, Turkey, Brazil, Mexico and Colombia, respectively, by addressing the latest advances in a broad range of low dimensional structures and devices (LDSD) technologies, and their integration for a variety of applications.

The use of low dimensional structures is a key technological element in the creation of new quantum functional devices, in the development of the next generation of electronic and photonic integrated circuits and many other nanoscaled devices that are needed for the information society of this 21st century.

The conference is being established to provide a forum for researchers, engineers, and product developers engaged in the full spectrum of research and development, from fundamental research to product manufacturing and systems applications. In addition, the conference will provide an opportunity to get a broad overview of the field by covering a wide range of growth techniques, materials, nanostructures, characterization, processing, device fabrication, microsystems, applications, and other related topics. This diversity of topics has been chosen to encourage the exchange of ideas between the broad range of physics and engineering disciplines.

The scientific program will consist of: (a) invited talks describing the current state of the art of LDSD field, which will be presented by leading specialists in each of these key areas, (b) experimental and theoretical work, on both fundamental and applied research in LDSD in the form of oral and poster presentations in unique sessions.

The official language of the conference will be English.
