International Workshop Würzburg 2012
International Workshop on "Correlated Electrons at Surfaces and Interfaces" in Würzburg at the Residence (UNESCO World Heritage)
Abstract Submission and Registration until 05 August 2012 (closed)
Scope:
Interacting electrons at surfaces and interfaces represent ideal model systems for a systematic study of electronic correlation effects in low-dimensional geometries. For this purpose modern surface science provides powerful experimental probes such as photoemission spectroscopy and scanning tunneling microscopy. At the same time, advanced epitaxial deposition methods allow for the fabrication of surface and interface structures with near-atomic precision, thereby facilitating detailed control of relevant electronic interaction parameters.
It is the purpose of this workshop to bring together experimental and theoretical experts from the fields of "Surface Science" and "Strongly Correlated Electron Systems" and provide a platform for mutual exchange in this exciting area.
Topics:
- Correlations in 1D and 2D surface structures
- Kondo and heavy fermion physics on surfaces
- Interfaces of oxide heterostructures
- Topological insulators
