TMCS VI conference
University of Strathclyde, Glasgow, UK, 11th to 13th April 2018
Extension of deadline
Due to the current industrial action in the UK University sector, the deadline for abstract submissions has been extended to the 9th of March. Early registration is extended to the 19th of March.
Modelling, theory and the use of sophisticated computational tools can represent a substantial cost and time saving for R&D. The development of high speed computer architectures has enabled widespread use of accurate methods for calculating the structural, thermodynamic, vibrational, electronic and optical properties of semiconductors and their heterostructures. This workshop, sponsored by the Institute of Physics (London), the Scottish University Physics Alliance (SUPA), EPSRC (UK) and the Hartree CECAM node (UK), will run for three days, with the objective of bringing together leading experts in the field of the theory of group IV, III-V and wider semiconductors together with early stage researchers and students who are new to the area and can benefit from an introduction to a very vast field at this influential point in their careers.
The introductory day (11th April) is a training event intended specifically for PhD students and early career researchers, with high level lectures on the major methodologies in the field.
A list of confirmed invited tutors includes:
Matt Probert (University of York, UK) “Efficient and Accurate Density Functional Theory”
