EP2DS18-MSS14 has been successfully closed. Thank you for your attendance.
See you in the next EP2DS-MSS.
The 18th International Conference on Electronic Properties of
Two-Dimensional Systems (EP2DS-18) and the 14th
International Conference on Modulated Semiconductor structures
(MSS-14) will be jointly held at
Kobe International Conference Center, Kobe, Japan, July 19 - 24, 2009.
This will be the 2009 edition of the biennial conference series that
are now established as the major events in the research fields of
modulated semiconductors and low-dimensional electron systems.
What is Joint Conference?
By making a registration either to EP2DS-18 or to MSS-14, the
participants could freely come and go between the two. The submission
of papers is limited, however, only to the registered Conference. If
you want to submit papers to both Conferences, you need to
register to both Conferences and to pay doulbe registration fee.
The first "joining" of the two conferences occured in 1985 for EP2DS-6
and MSS-2 in Kyoto, Japan. Tsuneya Ando (Chair of EP2DS) and Hiroyuki
Sakaki (that of MSS) decided to hold the two conferences in parallel
at the same location. This form was reenacted in Nara, Japan, in
1991, again in Nara, 2003, and has been followed from then on.

EP2DS traditionally covers the fundamental physics
as well as transport, optical and other properties
of electronic states in low dimensional systems.
Now the low-dimensional family is expanding to novel
systems such as nanotube, graphene, NEMS, and others. |
MSS addresses the synthesis, processing and applications
of modulated materials. With an initial focus on semiconductor
heteroand nano structures, MSS now also encompasses
the broader range of hybrid, modulated organic, spintronic,
and biologically-based modulated structures.
