First_Announcement

Nanoscience and Nanotechnology have a strong potential to bring about to substantial changes in many fields of our life including the optoelectronics.
The optoelectronics as a field of technology that combines the physics of light with electricity that meets the ever increasing demands of the human society in the field of information technology, biotechnology, energy management by using the latest achievements of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology.
The nanostructured materials possess unique properties – mechanical, electrical, optical, magnetic, biological, entirely different from those of the conventional micro- or millimeter sized materials due to their distinctive size and shape, and predominant surface and quantum effects. The preparation and investigation of smart nanosized materials for different applications, like quantum dots, nanotubes, nanowires, nanoparticles and nanocomposites is an important matter in combination with their performance in micro- and nanooptics, MEMS, NEMS and other higher level of integration and effective processing. Only the common efforts of scientists from different fields of research – chemistry, physics, biology, materials science and engineering – and from different countries can bring the complimentary expertise in the development of new advanced materials and practices in Nanoscience and Nanotechnology.

The first objective of the conference is to present to the participants the up-to-date achievements in the Nanoscience and Nanotechnology. The second objective is the teaching and training of the participants in the scientific and technological background of nanostructures and nanostructured materials used in fields like optoelectronics, bionanotechnology, energy conversion and storage, new generation of advanced sensors, etc. The third objective addresses the initiation of transborder and interdisciplinary collaborations between young scientists towards the implementation of the recent nanotechnological achievements in security.
The ICONMO will cover various topics connected with the recent achievements in the field of nanotechnology and nanomaterials. The lectures will be given by outstanding scientists from universities and research institutes who are experts in nanoscience-related fields. Several thematic seminars on specific topics, not covered by the lectures, will be also included in the programme. The poster session will be held in the afternoon, during which the participants can present their results, establish closer contacts and discuss in less formal atmosphere.
