Researchers from Purdue, India lead conference on nanotechnology's role in future electronics |
|
| (Nanowerk News) Researchers at Discovery Park are joining colleagues from Indian and other U.S. institutions for a three-day conference this week at Purdue University on nanotechnology's growing role in creating future electronics. | |
| Frontiers in Scalable Nanostructured Materials and Interfaces is scheduled for Tuesday through Thursday (March 10-12) at the Burton D. Morgan Center for Entrepreneurship, Room 121. | |
| Leading the conference are researchers from Purdue's Birck Nanotechnology Center and the International Centre for Materials Science at the Jawaharlal Nehru Center for Advanced Scientific Research in Bangalore, India. | |
| The three-day event will feature lectures, presentations and panel discussions on the scalable use of nanomaterials, the physics of nanoelectronics, integrating nanomaterials for energy and biological applications, and nanomaterials and devices for clean energy and energy conservation. | |
| A.K. Sood, professor and head of physics department at the Indian Institute of Science in Bangalore, will deliver the keynote lecture 9 a.m. Tuesday (March 10). Sood, who has published 230 research papers and holds two patents in the United States and four in India, will talk about his research in replacing silicon transistors with carbon nanotubes. | |
| Sponsors for the event are the U.S. National Science Foundation, Indo-U.S. Science and Technology Forum, Birck Nanotechnology Center and Discovery Park. For a complete schedule, go to http://www.purdue.edu/discoverypark/ nanotechnology/nanointerfaces/. Event organizers are: | |
