Bringing the quantum nanoscience community together

There are many conferences that cover subfields of quantum nanoscience. However, as far as the organizers know, there is currently no conference that brings this broad community under one roof. With this conference, we are bringing together leading experts and young scientists from all around the globe to share recent advances and have in-depth discussions on these exciting research topics.

Besides the invited speakers listed below, we will have several contributed speakers in each session chosen from the submitted abstracts. You can also participate to the conference with a poster presentation or simply as a listener.

We ask you to kindly register your interest to attend this conference.

At this point, we simply need to know how many people to expect in order to reserve proper facilities. Later, we will offer a discount on the registration fee for early registrants. Thank you in advance for registering!

The local hosting will be provided by the Center for Quantum Nanoscience, which is located at Ewha Womans University in the heart of Seoul and is funded through the Institute for Basic Science. QNS has long-term expertise in investigating, assembling, and controlling quantum spin systems at surfaces. This relatively new topic in quantum nanoscience will be covered as one session in this conference.

Session 4: Quantum surface science

Surfaces of materials offer the opportunity to use scanning probe techniques to measure their properties. This can be combined with atomic-scale manipulation to build structures with atomic-scale precision. Recently it has become possible to perform quantum-coherent manipulation of atoms on surfaces.
