International nanotechnology symposium on graphene devices

(Nanowerk News) A significant progress in the formation of graphene, the demonstration of its exceptional electronic properties, and the possibility of creating electronic/photonic/spintronic devices on graphene have attracted significant attention among nanotechnology researchers within just a few years.
The International Symposium on Graphene Devices: Technology, Physics, and Modeling (ISGD 2008) aims to bring together the researchers actively working on the field of "Graphene Devices: technology, physics and modeling" so as to stimulate discussions on the state of the art.
ISGD 2008 will be held at the University of Aizu in Aizu-Wakamatsu, Fukushima Japan on November 17-19th, 2008. The technical program will include invited, oral, and poster presentations.
