January 17-19, 2012
Sponsored by University Grants Commission, New Delhi (India) Department of Science and Technology (India) Shivaji University, Kolhapur (India)
Organized by DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICS (DST-FIST, UGC-DRS-SAP, UGC-ASIST, DSA-I, DST-PURSE sponsored) Shivaji University, Kolhapur-416 004 Maharashtra (India) www.unishivaji.ac.in/icpmmdf2012.htm
Objectives of the conference:
The Ist International Conference on Physics of Materials and Materials based Device Fabrication aims to bring together scientists, technologists and researchers to exchange their views and ideas for a better understanding and international cooperation in the subject. Physics of Materials and Materials based Device Fabrication as a special theme deals with the application of a variety of tools and techniques. It is a subject area that focuses on physics of materials, batteries, electrochemical cells/reactors, semiconductors. Device fabrication technology is also used in society development, energy generation and research into new materials and methodologies for chemical processing. In this conference the experimental and theoretical studies of novel and advanced materials and process mechanisms will be highlighted, together with the application of these materials in surface protection and modification, application in batteries, fuel cells, supercapacitors, actuators, photo-electrochemical cells and sensors, microelectronics and biotechnology.
