Dear Friends and Colleagues,

We take pleasure to invite you to participate in the Nanostructures symposium of the XII international conference on surfaces, materials and vacuum, which will be held in San Luis Potosí from 23th to 27th September 2019. Participants interested in presenting an oral or poster contribution are invited to submit an abstract to the following link until June 30th:

The symposium scientific program will cover a wide spectrum of topics including physical phenomena, materials sciences, and applications of nanostructures. The diversity of topics provides an opportunity to broaden the knowledge on latest developments and future perspectives in nanostructures research. Current development in the nanostructured materials includes: (i) Synthesis, functionalization, processing and self-assembly of nanoparticles, (ii) Nanotubes, nanowires, quantum dots and other low dimensional structures, (iii) Bio-active nanomaterials and nanostructured materials for bio-medical applications, (iv) Carbon nanostructured materials, Nano-structured membranes, nano-porous materials, functional coatings, (v) Nanomaterials for photo-catalysis, solar hydrogen and thermoelectric, (vi) Nano-fabrication, characterization and manipulation techniques for nanostructures, (vii) Magnetic and nano-semiconductor materials, (ix) Industrial development and application of nanomaterials and (x) Theoretical studies of nanostructured materials.

The conference will be an excellent platform to exchange ideas and discover opportunities to develop novel researches, enjoying the landscape of Nuevo Leon.

We look forward to welcoming you.
