CALL FOR PAPERS & FIRST ANNOUNCEMENT
4th INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON SURFACES,
COATINGS AND NANOSTRUCTURED MATERIALS (NANOSMAT)
19-22 October 2009
Crowne Plaza-St. Peter’s
Rome, Italy
www.nanosmat2009.com
As with the NanoSMat meetings in 2005, 2007 and 2008, NanoSMat-2009 will foster the gathering of talented people from the world for the exchange of ideas and information. The conference will thereby provide a platform for interaction between researchers, scientists and engineers from industry, research laboratories and academia, and it will feature state-of-the-art developments in all aspects of processing, characterisation and applications of nanostructured materials.
Following are the symposia for NANOSMAT-2009:
1. SYMPOSIUM (CNM): CARBON NANOSTRUCTUED MATERIALS
• Ultrananocrystalline diamond
• Carbon nanocomposites
• Carbon nanotubes
• Novel carbon nanostructures
2. SYMPOSIUM (SBN): SURFACE SCIENCE & ENGINEERING: FROM BULK TO NANO-SCALE
• Tribology and Lubrication Science
• Thin films and coatings
• Magnetic and electronic nanomaterials
• Nanoporous semiconductor materials
• Nanocatalysis
• Nanofabrication and characterisation
• Nanoparticles
3. SYMPOSIUM (NET): NANOTECHNOLOGICAL APPROACHES, NANOMATERIALS & THIN FILMS FOR ENERGY TECHNOLOGIES
• Fuel cells
• Photovoltaic solar cells
• Hydrogen energy/storage
• Functional Surfaces and Nanostructured Coatings for Energy Systems
4. SYMPOSIUM (NMB): NANOMEDICINE & NANOBIOTECHNOLOGY
• Drug delivery
• Biomaterials
• Diagnostics
• Imaging
• Biosensors
• Biomarkers
The event will also host an exhibition and offer several short educational courses relating to nano-scale and nanostructured materials.
We hope that you will be able to join us for what promises to be an exciting meeting, both scientifically and culturally, and we look forward to seeing you in Rome!
The deadline for Abstract Submission is 15 JUNE 2009.

SPONSORSHIP & EXHIBITION OPPORTUNITIES
NanoSMat2009 will cover all research and application aspects relating to latest development and discoveries in nanomaterials, nanotechnology, materials processing, characterization, testing, and evaluation. The attendance for NanoSMat conference series (NanoSMat2005 [http://www.mec.ua.pt/icscnm], NanoSMat2007, NanoSMat2008 [http://www.nanosmat2008.org/]) has been between 200-500 delegates participants from all over the world.
We believe that this is a good opportunity to showcase your latest processing and characterization equipment or apparatus to the researchers/speakers in this region and from the rest of the world.
We thus invite you, with great pleasure, to participate in this exciting event in Rome, Italy.
Various sponsorship packages have been designed to suit your needs for maximum impact at this event. To sign up for the conference exhibition or for more information, please contact us on info@nanosmat2009.com.
Looking forward to your active participation. To view the various sponsorship packages click:
