International Workshop on APPLIED ASPECTS OF INTERFACE SCIENCE

September 22 - 24, 1999
Palace of Scientists, St.Petersburg, Russia

Sponsored by
US Office of Naval Research , International Field Office, Europe
European Office of Aerospace Research and Development, UK
European Research Office of the US Army, UK


The objective of this Workshop is to present current research on advanced nanostructured materials and high transition temperature superperconducting materials (characterized by nano-scaled coherence length) with the special attention being paid to the effect of interfaces on the unique, commonly highly desired properties of such materials as well their applications in various high technology areas. The Workshop aims to assess the current status and to identify future directions of R&D and applications of nanostructured bulk solids, films and coatings as well as polycrystalline superconducting materials. Particular emphasis is placed on developing close interactions and fostering future collaborations among scientists and engineers from Russia, USA and other countries.
