Symposium A-3: "Combinatorial Materials Science"

Scope
Combinatorial is a key concept in the materials development in the future that requires us to handle a wide variety of and enormous numbers of materials. This symposium will cover all aspects of combinatorial materials research including materials/devices synthesis, high-throughput characterization and materials We are planning to invite several distinguished researchers of this field to manifest the activity and potential of combinatorial technology. Active participation from industry, universities and national laboratories is strongly encouraged.


Topics
* Combinatorial thin film growth and synthesis
* Material informatics for combinatorial technology
* Combinatorial catalysis synthesis
* Combinatorial polymer synthesis
* Combinatorial synthesis by wet process
* Discovery of novel functional materials by combinatorial synthesis
* High-throughput characterization for combinatorial specimen
