Symposium II-6. Electronic Materials - Advanced Oxide Materials and Thin Films: Electrical, Optical and Magnetic Devices

Metal Oxides are key materials for the development of the next generation new devices because they have remarkable electrical, optical and magnetic properties such as transparent conductivity, resistive switching, metal- insulator transition, thin film transistors, photoconductivity, luminescence, piezoelectricity, ferroelectricity, ferromagnetism, multiferroicity, and so on. In most cases, these properties can be controlled by following important common factors, metal compositions, crystal structures, orientations, defects, oxygen non-stoichiometry, interfaces, thickness, nanostructures, grain size and intrinsic and/or thermal stresses. Therefore, in order to develop the high performance devices using oxide materials, it is necessary to control these factors by precise processing, in-situ monitoring, characterization and calculation. This symposium will highlight recent subjects in developments covering from materials science to device fabrication and applications of metal oxide materials and their thin films. Epitaxial growth and growth on flexible substrates are highlighted especially. Resistive switchings are focused. The aim of the symposium is to provide opportunity of interdisciplinary collaborations for researchers working on design, fabrication, theory, analysis and application of functional oxide materials to develop various new devices. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):

° Ferroelectrics and multiferroics, transparent conductive materials, magnetic semiconductor, phosphor, high temperature use of electronic components ° Single crystals and bulk materials ° Effects of epitaxial strain, stress, and defects on functional properties of thin films ° Controls of epitaxial and orientation growth ° Characterizations of nanocomposites and nano-particles, and controls of structure and property ° Synthesis and characterization of oxide thin films ° Flexible electronics ° Theoretical and computational approaches ° Advanced processing for new materials and devices: CVD, PLD, MBE, sputtering, solution process (sol-gel, MOD, hydrothermal synthesis) etc. ° Resistive switchings and mechanism Invited speakers (tentative) include:

Symposium III-6. Energy and Environmental Materials - Superconducting and thermoelectric materials for sustainable development

Mankind needs sustainable technologies and advanced materials to generate, transport and store energy in order to solve severe energy issues. Two categories of materials can be considered: superconductors and thermoelectrics:

1) In last 30 years, many new superconducting materials have been discovered (cuprates, Fe-based pnictides, MgB 2) and materials science of superconductors has been progressed rapidly. However, the majority of applications are still based on conventional metallic superconductors and Liquid helium usage is required. Lots of efforts are still required to disclose new superconducting materials to practical applications. 2) Thermoelectric materials are able to directly convert thermal energy wasted in plants, car engines, etc. into electrical energy. This feature is considered as highly promising to reduce mankind’s dependence on nuclear and fossil fuels and eliminate greenhouse gas emissions. However, the path for practical applications of thermoelectrics appears still long. This symposium aims to bridge the gap between materials science and applications in both categories of sustainable materials. An interdisciplinary discussion amongst experts belonging to both subjects is highly welcome. Special combined session on “Sustainable materials” is planned. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):

Symposium IV-6. Functional Materials - Materials Chemistry and Catalysis

Materials properties are controlled by chemical natures such as constituent elements of the materials, organizations, crystal structures, molecular structures. Therefore, physicochemical measurements to characterize materials properties are a prerequisite to device fabrication. Such characterization is the goal of Materials Chemistry, which includes syntheses, characterizations and subsequent applications of the materials– often accompanied by predictions from theory or simulation. Materials Chemistry is highly interdisciplinary, then contributions from all disciplines of materials researches(including theoretical/computational approaches) are encouraged and welcome. Thin films on flexible substrates for flexible electronics are highlighted. In this symposium we especially focus on Catalysis. Catalysis is now a pillar of global industrial technology and a key for sustainable development. The symposium will highlight the development of cost-efficient organic or inorganic catalysts, catalytic processes and applications for chemical production and energy conversion. The aim is to provide an interdisciplinary collaboration for researchers on synthesis, facility design, and applications.

Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):

° Chemistry of nanomaterials(carbon, metal oxide, and compound semiconductors) ° Organic polymers and organic-inorganic hybrids ° Biomaterials and biotechnologies for magnetic/optical/electrical devices ° Chemical complexes for homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis ° Materials for photocatalysis and electrocatalysis ° Materials for complexes, materials or enzymes for catalysis in biosystem Keynote speaker: Prof. Masahiro Yoshimura, National Cheng Kung University, Taiwan.
