Topic Close-up #5
Symposium D03: Nanoscale Luminescent Materials 7
Extended Deadline for Submitting Abstracts:
December 17, 2021
Symposium focus: This symposium—the seventh in a biannual series—focuses on those characteristics of nanoscale materials that relate to their luminescence properties. Relevant topics include effects of quantum confinement; the role of surface states; loss mechanisms; methods to improve luminescence efficiency; bulk vs. nanoparticle luminescence; and the role of phonons in nanomaterials. Presentations at this meeting address the physics, chemistry, and/or engineering of such materials, including topics such as basic physical properties of luminescent nano-materials including insulators, semiconductors, organics, and polymers; nanophosphors for biophotonics and biomarkers; nanoparticles for light emitting diodes and next generation lighting applications; luminescent properties of fabricated nano-structures (nanowires, nanorods, nanodots, etc.); and nanophosphors for traditional phosphor applications such as x-ray and scintillator phosphors, phosphors for VUV excitation, and persistent phosphors. More than 20 invited speakers from Europe, Asia, Australia, the United States, and Canada have already confirmed their participation. Additional invited talks may be selected from among the submitted abstracts.
