The CLACSA XIII is organized with the support of the Sociedad Latinoamericana de Ciencias de Superficie (SLACS), la Universidad de los Andes and Universidad Nacional in Bogotá-Colombia
PURPOSE
To serve as a forum for the exchange of information of research being conducted in the Americas on the physics of solid surfaces and related areas and material science, biomaterials and nano-scale phenomena and technology.
To stimulate collaborative research in this important and very active branch of science between researchers based in Latin America and those in the United States, Canada and Europe.
To promote further development of nanotechnology infrastructure in Latin America.
The conference will consist of plenary lectures, invited talks and oral presentations previously selected among the contributed papers. Poster sections are also planned with the main purpose of motivating discussions between senior physicists and young scientists of our region. We are stimulating the participation of graduate students mainly those developing their theses on topics related to the conference areas.
