Physical Chemistry of Interfaces and Nanomaterials XV

Interfaces play an essential role in many (bio-) physico-chemical processes, ranging from solar energy conversion via biological membrane processes to catalysis. Recent developments in nanomaterials highlight the importance of surfaces and interfaces in quantum confined systems. The detailed study of the physics and physical chemistry at interfaces and in nanomaterials requires the development of experimental and theoretical techniques of ever-increasing complexity. New forms of non-linear spectroscopy, imaging, and scanned-probe techniques continue to emerge in conjunction with sophisticated theoretical methods capable of treating correlated systems of increasing size and over timescales of femto- to nanoseconds. 

The intent of this conference is to bring together an interdisciplinary group of scientists (from academia, industry, and government laboratories) who study fundamental processes at interfaces and in nanomaterials.
