13th International Conference on
Atomically Controlled Surfaces, Interfaces and Nanostructures
Italy – Rome, October 9-15, 2016

The Nanoscience Prize established since 1999 at ACSIN-5 is awarded to scientists that established “Outstanding Achievements in Nanoscience”.

The Nanoscience Prize 2016 has been given, at the closing session of the ACSIN-13 conference organized by RICMASS, Superstripes and LNF held in Frascati National Laboratories on October 14, 2016.

For outstanding studies on advances in realizations of silicon based atomic controlled heterostructures at atomic limit made of superlattices of silicon nanotubes, silicene layers and nanoribbonds which have been predicted to show unique functional quantum electronics properties

About ACSIN 2016

The Conference will consist of Invited, Oral presentations and Poster Sessions, which will be organized to address to reaserch frontiers in semiconductor surfaces, interfaces and nanostructured materials, device physics, bio materials and applications.

ACSIN-2016 will primarily focus on general aspects of materials, surfaces and interfaces within the topics that are of strong current interest in semiconductor surface and interface science.

Location

ASCSIN-13 will be held in, Rome - Italy at the Bruno Touschek Congress Center Frascati National Laboratories LNF of Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare (Tor Vergata) which can be reached in 18 minutes from Central railroad Station of Rome (Roma Termini).
