Optical Probes 2013
A warm welcome to the 10th Optical Probes Conference, 2013 in Durham
The Optical Probes Conference is the leading series of meetings in the field of photophysics of organic semiconductors. The previous conferences took place at Snowbird (1992), Salt Lake City (1994), San-Diego (1997), Salt Lake City (2000), Venice (2003), Bangalore (2005), Turku (2007), Beijing (2009) and Santa Fe (2011). The scope of the current conference is a variety of excited state phenomena in technologically important materials and biosystems, including size-dependent and time-dependent electronic interactions, excited state dynamics, quantum confinement, and carrier transport, emphasising similarity of the phenomena rather than specifics of the systems and optical measurement.
Conference Registration is now open. Please follow the link from the Fees page to the University Events web site to register.
