Description

The workshop aims to cover cutting-edge research in the field of nanoscale physics with a focus on the physical and chemical properties of assemblies composed of nano-crystals, molecules, bio-molecules and polymers. One of the central ideas of the workshop is to bring together theoreticians and experimentalists and let them interact and exchange ideas. The topics to be addressed in the workshop will include, but not be limited to: • Strategies and technologies of nano-assembly leading to complex geometries and novel properties • Modern theoretical and computational approaches to complex hybrid nanoscale systems • Migration and transfer of energy at the nanoscale, including FRET, tunneling transport and heat flow • Optical properties of excitonic nanocrystals and their assemblies • Plasmonic nanostructures with novel optical properties • Hybrid structures with interacting exciton and plasmon resonances • Coupling between molecules and nanocrystals • Many-body effects in nanoscale systems that may control the assembly, chemistry and physical properties • Bio-assemblies of nanocrystals based on polymers, involving DNAs, proteins and other molecules • Schemes for functional nano-assemblies for solar energy harvesting, bio-sensing and other applications
