Period

 August 28 (Mon), 2017 ~ August 30 (Wed), 2017

Overview

 The research area of nano-mechanics has developed rapidly in recent years following drastic improvements in device fabrication and measurement methods as well as in theory and modeling. Research about nano-mechanical systems is not only concerned with fundamental physics such as the mechanical control of single electron charge and spin transport, optical control and cooling of the mechanical degrees of freedom, electromechanical systems that approach or attain the mechanical quantum ground state, and electrical systems that control photons and phonons at the quantum level, but it also aims to develop applications like ultra sensitive mass detectors, chemical & biological sensors, quantum information technology and so on. This workshop will build on the success of two previous nano-mechanics workshops supported by APCTP in 2012 and 2015. Well established researchers from all over the world and young scientists will meet together and share their most recent results on the physics and applications of nano-mechanical systems. 

Topics

 Topics to be covered in this workshop are: Optomechanics Spintromechanics Chaos in nanomechanical systems Biomechanics Spectrometry using nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS) Nanomechanically controlled superconductivity Qubits with NEMS Graphene based NEMS NEMS based sensors
