Scope:
The scope of the France-Japan Workshop 2017 on Functional Nanomaterials and Soft Materials is to bring together scientists from Japan, France, and other countries, in the fields of nano-materials and soft materials for exchange and discussion of the related topics . This workshop will cover the topics on inorganic nanomaterials (layered materials, nanosheets, colloids, porous materials ...), synthetic polymers, biomaterials (DNA, tubulin, … ), liquid crystals, ionic liquids, and related techniques such as small-angle scattering.

Date:
July 24,2017

Venue:
Laboratoire de Physique des Solides, Université de Paris-Sud, France
