2007 Workshop on

 

Fundamental Physics of Ferroelectrics

 

February 11-14, 2007

 

WILLIAMSBURG, VIRGINIA

 

 

Announcement

 

This workshop continues a series of experimental and/or theoretical meetings on fundamental issues in the physics of ferroelectrics, held each February since 1990. The 2007 workshop will cover experimental and theoretical issues in synthesizing, measuring, understanding, and predicting the behavior of ferroelectrics and related materials. Topics of particular interest will include piezoelectricity; phase transitions and phase diagrams of multicomponent systems; surfaces, thin films, nanostructures and superlattices; and measurement and calculation of optical, electrical and magnetic properties.
