Announcements of conferences, workshops, schools…
Due to the large number of posts recently, there is currently a delay of several weeks between posts being submitted and the corresponding emails being distributed to all users. Please bear with us while we try to improve this. In the meantime – and until this notice is removed – it would assist us considerably if you could submit only important and/or urgent posts and thus help to reduce the size of the mail queue. Under no circumstances should you resend posts multiple times when you find the emails are not distributed immediately.
In light of the Russian military offensive in Ukraine, we request that announcements relating to events, jobs and other activities associated with institutions supported by the Russian and Belarusian states are not posted to the Psi-k forum.

The is the second announcement for the workshop “Fundamental Physics of Ferroelectrics and Related Materials 2024” (Ferro2024), which will take place Feb 4-7, 2024 at the Earth and Planets Laboratory, Carnegie Institution for Science, 5241 Broad Branch Rd., N.W, Washington, D.C., 20015. Registration and two-page-abstract (pdf format) deadlines are Dec. 1, 2023. The registration fee is $300 through December 1. Late registration will be possible, but abstracts received after December 1 risk not being included in the program. The late registration is $400. Registration is at: https://www.materialsbydesign.org/registration2024. The website also has information about hotels and travel.

This workshop has met annually since 1990. Over the past 35 years, it has evolved into one of the world's leading forums on the physics of ferroelectricity and related phenomena where the best researchers from around the world gather to share and debate cutting-edge developments in the field, both experimental and theoretical. This workshop series has played a significant role in fostering multi-institutional research collaborations devoted to understanding the fundamental physics of these complex and versatile materials. Topics to be discussed include the fundamental physics of electrically active devices, multiferroics, polar photovoltaics, nonlinear optics and optics driven processes in dielectrics, flexoelectricity, polar metals, topological insulators in electric fields, neuromorphic computing elements, 2D ferroelectrics, and more.
The meeting is being run by the non-profit 501(c)3 Center for Materials by Design LLC (CMD). Donations to CMD are welcome, which will be used to help support the meeting activities and travel grants for students and postdocs.
