Scope

The 11th international conference on plasma nanoscience will continue the main themes of the conference series, from the fundamental science to applications of low-temperature plasmas, ion beams, lasers, and related approaches and its relation to the fabrication, synthesis, modification, and integration of nanoscale materials, structures, and functional devices. The conference also welcomes talks on how plasmas interact at the nanoscale and outstanding applications of plasmas in energy, environment and life sciences.

Fabrication of inorganic nanomaterials and nanostructures using vacuum or atmospheric plasmas or ion beams and control of their functionality and surface properties
Fabrication of organic nanomaterials and nanostructures and control of their functionality (materials include (but are not limited to): graphene, carbon, polymers, or other organic materials (e.g., biomaterials)
New plasma processes in vacuum or atmospheric pressure for nanoscale fabrication, green nanofabrication, improvement of industrial processes, sustainable lifecycles of natural resources
Applications of plasma nanotechnology in the life sciences and chemistry including: diagnostics / monitoring (integration in sensors, biosensors, lab-on-chip, MEMS, etc.)
Plasma nanocatalysis
Applications of plasma nanotechnology in photonics and plasmonics
Applications of plasma nanotechnology in energy and energy harvesting devices
Plasmas at new spatiotemporal scales: micro and nanoplasmas, nanosecond pulsing, nanoplasmas generated by ultrafast intense radiation
Modeling and diagnostics of plasmas during nanomaterial growth or etching
Plasmas formed at the surface of or inside liquids
Entrepreneurial efforts in plasma nanotechnology (e.g. new spin-off companies and products)
New vacuum or atmospheric plasma sources for plasma nanotechnology
Plasma diagnostics and material characterisation

FORMAT (HYBRID)

The meeting will include leading scientists and researchers in plasma science and engineering from around the globe. The symposium will be a Gordon-style meeting, with the total number of participants strictly limited to 70.
