The 4th International Symposium on Structure-Property Relationships in Solid State Materials will be held at the University of Bordeaux 1 in Bordeaux, France from June 24 to June 29, 2012. This international symposium follows the previous symposia held at Bordeaux (2006), Nantes (2008), and Stuttgart (2010).
The conference will take place at ENSEIRB-MATMECA - 1, avenue Albert Schweitzer in Talence. The ENSEIRB is only 200m from the tramway station "Arts et Métiers", on Tram Line B.
The symposium will be an international forum to present and discuss recent research results. The goal is to highlight how the specific physical properties of these materials are related to their structure and/or chemical composition and how these properties may be modified by varying the nature of the chemical bonds, the strength of the electron-electron interaction, the dopant concentration, etc. The meeting will be devoted mainly to structure-property relationships in magnetic, optical, electronic, and functional materials. This symposium will provide opportunities for experimental and theoretical solid state chemists, physicists and materials scientists to share their knowledge and expertise.
