GENERAL INFORMATION
The CMME conference follows the series of international seminars on highly conducting organic materials for molecular electronics organized by the Institute of Molecular Physics of the Polish Academy of Sciences:
Polish - French meetings (Czerniejewo 1985, Nancy 1987, Czerniejewo 1989),
Polish - Soviet meetings (Czerniejewo 1988, Chernogolovka 1990, Kiekrz 1992),
4th International Seminar (Zajączkowo 1994),
5th International Seminar (Puszczykowo 1997),
and NATO Advanced Research Workshop (Poznań 2001).
The detailed scope of these conferences was evolving with time, but it was always focused on molecular electronics and potential applications.
The conference is planned to be an interdisciplinary meeting of scientists, both theorists and experimentalists, involved in materials science, nanotechnology and processing of molecular devices.
The programme will focus on the following topics:
- fundamental scientific issues for molecular conductors,
- electron correlations in molecular conductors,
- synthesis, assembly and processing for molecular systems,
- quantum transport through nanostructures, magnetic and molecular systems,
- experimental characterization and probes of molecular structures,
- theory, modelling and simulations of molecular electronic devices.
The main objective is to bring together scientists from the European Union and newly associated countries working in the field of molecular electronics and nanotechnology. The conference is also addressed to young researchers and students to present them basic ideas and experience of outstanding scientists. Financial support will be available for some students.
The programme will consist of invited (40 min including discussion) and contributed (20 min including discussion) talks as well as poster presentations. The proceedings including invited lectures and selected contributed papers will be published at the beginning of 2005.
