Short description

The host city of the 3rd NanoSMat conference will be - Barcelona, Spain! The event will take place during 21-24 October 2008 at the Meliá Barcelona hotel, located in the financial and commercial heart of the city.

Long description

As with the NanoSMat meetings in 2005 and 2007, NanoSMat-2008 will foster the gathering of talented people from the world for the exchange of ideas and information. The conference will thereby provide a platform for interaction between researchers, scientists and engineers from industry, research laboratories and academia, and it will feature state-of-the-art developments in all aspects of processing, characterisation and applications of nanostructured materials.

A major purpose of the NanoSMat conference is to foster collaborations among scientists, engineers, researchers and industrialists, and thus to stimulate future technological developments. There will be ample opportunity for conference delegates to network in a friendly and supportive environment.

The success of a technology becomes especially apparent when it is translated from a laboratory curiosity into economic development and wealth creation. Every endeavour will be made to stimulate and promote the discovery, development, and commercialization of advanced nanoscale materials and new applications in the evergreen field of surface and coatings technologies.

The event will also host an exhibition and offer several short educational courses relating to nano-scale and nanostructured materials.

We hope that you will be able to join us for what promises to be an exciting meeting, both scientifically and culturally, and we look forward to seeing you in Barcelona!

Dr. Nasar Ali
NanoSMat Chairman

Long description

ight, more exactly laser light, has become a fundamental tool in scientific, technological and economic advances in many areas that go from telecommunications and Internet to the science of life and health care, environmental technologies, and entertainment. At ICFO we push the frontiers of the cores of these areas, such as quantum optics, nanophotonics, or biophotonics.

The ICFO core spirit is ingenuity, fascination for the unknowns, and hard work. An attitude shared by many researchers around the world with whom ICFO members continuously interact and correspond.

One of ICFO's main missions is to train PhD students, through courses, seminars, accessibility to cutting-edge experimental infrastructures, and the mastering of researchers that are among the best in the world in their field. This is a training addressed to equip talented students with unique capabilities that help them become future leaders, either in the academic or in the industrial world.

Our most valued treasures are such PhD students and post-doctoral researchers. They are bright, ambitious young women and men, with a talent for discovery and strong moral values, whom aim at achieving difficult but important goals. Listen to your heart: If you share such values and aims and you like working with light, surf our web to find out the challenge that most interests you, and get on board. A new project is about to leave port to take you on an exciting intellectual trip.

Long description

The basic technology platform of Activery®, is DELOS®, the newest and most promising nanoparticle production method using supercritical fluids (SCF).

Initially patented just as a "method for precipitating finely divided solid particles", further developments based on its unique common denominator led to a significant diversification through two new innovative processes.

• DELOS PLUS for the production of composite materials
• DELOS SUSP for production of nanosuspensions and nanoemulsions

In addition, Activery® possesses extensive capabilities using supercritical fluids with the established PCA process for the production of micro-particles and composite materials.
