Conference on Nanophononics, Bridging Statistical Physics, Molecular Modeling and Experiments

Administration

Description

To achieve the overarching goal of efficient nanoscale heat management, synergistic multidisciplinary collaborations are required, bridging statistical physics, nonlinear dynamics, molecular modeling, materials science, mechanical engineering, nanodevice fabrication and experiments. The purpose of this conference is to bring together researchers with these different backgrounds to discuss the most recent developments in the field of nanophononics.

TOPICS:

Heat transport in nonlinear systems
