The Fundamental Physics of Ferroelectrics and Related Materials Workshop has been held every year since 1990, making 2013 the 24th annual meeting. This meeting features an international list of speakers focused on significant new ideas and cutting edge developments in the field of ferroelectric materials. The workshop is intended to bring together a diverse set of researchers from around the world in the fields of materials physics and engineering, both theorists and experimentalists, in order to facilitate the interdisciplinary exchange of ideas.
This year, the workshop will be held in Ames and is sponsored in part by the ISU MSE Department.
The workshop will feature sessions focused on: Multiferroics, Ferroelectrics, Relaxors, Theory and Modeling, Characterization Methods, Domains and Nanostructure, Interfaces and Surfaces, Non-oxide Ferroelectrics, Material Synthesis and Growth, and Phase Transformations. On Monday evening there will be a banquet, which will afford time for socialization with the participants.
All faculty, post-docs, students, and others involved in the functional ceramics community should plan to attend!
