ICSOS 2014
11th International Conference on the Structure of Surfaces
Topics include atomic positions, bond lengths and bond angles of clean and adsorbate surfaces, interfaces and nanostructures; nanoscale
morphology; their roles in determining electronic, optical, vibrational,
chemical and dynamic properties;
applications to phase transitions, disordering, defect formation, crystal growth, interface diffusion, segregation and chemical reactivity.
The meetings also serve to highlight the development of new and advanced experimental techniques for structure determination, and of sophisticated theoretical methods for modelling surfaces, interfaces and nanostructures.
ICSOS-11 will continue to award the Structure of Surfaces Prize (for outstanding achievement in the field of surface and interface structure) and the ICSOS Young Scientist Prize (for a current or recent PhD student in surface, interface and nanostructure).
The winners of these prizes will be invited to give lectures at the meeting.
