Carbonhagen 2013 august 19-20
Dear friends and colleagues,
We are happy to announce the 2013 edition of Carbonhagen,
the fourth Nordic symposium on carbon nanomaterials, which is to be
held in Copenhagen, August 19-20. While adhering to our motto,
“Maximising the carbon footprint”,
as much as ever, we this year welcome also reports on other 2D
materials such as MoS2, hBN etc, as well as zero and one dimensional
derivations thereof (tubes, scrolls, particles). The homepage is online
with practical information, and will be updated continuously, as
abstracts and talks arrive in our mailbox.
The early list of confirmed speakers suggests that you will
experience an up-to-date blend of deep scientific insights,
cutting edge technology and fresh results:
· Ernie Hill (University of Manchester, UK)
· Antonio Castro Neto (Graphene Research Center, SG)
· Herre van der Zant (Delft University, NL)
· Mikhael Katsnelson (Radboud University of Nijmegen, NL)
· Alexander Balatsky (Los Alamos Nat. Lab. US; Nordita, SE)
· George Duesberg (Trinity College Dublin, IR)
· Thomas Michely (University of Cologne, DE)
· Xinliang Feng (Max Planck University, DE)
· Daniel Neumaier (AMO GmbH, DE)
· Ursel Bangert (University of Manchester, UK)
Many abstracts will be uploaded in the following weeks.
About this years meeting:
Participant limit. Noting the significant growth rate of roughly
25% per year, will this year keep a limit to the participant number
to 150 to make it easier to meet and find people, and to keep the
meeting intimate and focused. SO, please do not be late - we
could run out even before the registration deadline expires.
Zero-fee option. As always we have a zero-fee option for
students and researchers lacking funding options, as well
as regular payment options for the rest.
Breaking news. Following the “Breaking News” success of
CBH2012, we this year have two breaking news sessions.
We think it is great to have “lab-fresh” results presented at
the meeting. The breaking news sessions will be booked as
close to the meeting as we can.
Presentations, posters, prizes and deadlines
Talks. We are planning to have about 2 keynote talks (40 min),
10-11 invited talks (30 min) and 12-13 contributed (15 min) talks.
This is likely to change, as we will continue to work on making the
strongest possible programme. Oral and poster abstracts submitted
before deadline will be published on the website and in the printed
programme.
Posters. The poster session is a pivotal event, and we will strive to
make the prizes, the exposure and the
possibility of interaction as attractive as possible. IN CONTRAST to
most meetings and conferences we already book many of the
contributed talks before the deadline, so if you are interested in
giving a talk, we recommend contacting us early to propose your
talk: info@carbonhagen.com.
Exhibitors and sponsors. CBH is an excellent opportunity for
companies and researchers to meet, and we will this year
host a presentation session early in the meeting, where sponsors
and exhibitors can address the audience and introduce their
services or products. Please contact Kasper Nørgaard
(kn@nano.ku.dk) if you are interested in hearing about what
CBH can offer in terms of sponsorships and exhibition.
Deadlines
Abstract submission (posters): August 8, 2013.
Abstract submission (talks): August 1, 2013.
Registration: August 1 (or until the limit of 150 participants is reached)

EUROMAT 2013
Two Symposia related to CNT and graphene will be organized in the framework of EUROMAT2013 (Sept. 8th-13th 2013, Sevilla, Spain)
Symposium A31 : ‘‘Carbon-containing composites and materials’’
This
symposium aims at comparing composites of any kind containing
carbon-based elements: carbon fibres, carbon nanotube fibres, dispersed
CNTs and graphene.
It
will address their fabrication processes, properties, mechanical
behaviour, and multifunctional performance, and includes the following
areas of interest:
* Processing issues related to integrating nanocarbons (i.e. CNTs, graphenes, carbon blacks, nanohorns...) in composites
* Composites containing both nanocarbon and CF.
* New carbon-based composite materials with CNT fibres
* Advances in fabrication processes and performances of CF composites.
* Multi-scale characterisation of carbon-containing composites
* Nano versus micro in carbon-containing composites
* Multiphasic carbon materials (e.g., carbon electrodes)
Symposium A32 : ‘‘Carbon nanotubes and graphene’’
Carbon nanotubes and graphene-based nanostructures, are presently the most interesting and
researched low dimensional nano-materials. The symposium will focus on progress and hot topics
related to large scale production/processing, applications and industrial issues of carbon nanotubes
and graphene. This specifically includes:
* Synthesis, sorting and selection methods
* Production and applications of graphene stacked with boron nitride and similar 2D materials
* Functionalization, dispersion, processing of carbon nanotubes and graphene
* Electronic, optical and mechanical properties of carbon nanotubes, graphene and related devices
* Biological activity and applications of carbon nanotubes and graphene
* Metrology and standardization
* Applications and industrial issues

Thursday, May 12, 2011
After three conferences (2006, 2008 and 2010) and an increasing number of participants, the 4th occurrence of ChemOnTubes will be held again in the unique setting of Arcachon Convention Center, in april 2012. In addition to carbon nanotubes, which were the focus of conferences of 2006 and 2008, graphene is now a major subject for carbon chemists and is undertaking a significant scientific development. Since 2010, ChemOnTubes has opened up to the chemistry of graphene, while retaining many presentations around nanotubes. Likewise, the sessions of the ChemOnTubes 2012 conference will also be entirely dedicated to the chemistry of carbon nanotubes and graphene:
Functionalization, Dispersion, Sorting Composites, Porous Materials, Coatings, Energy Storage, Conversion and Harvesting, Nanomedicine, Biomaterials, Functional Materials, Catalysis, Filtration, Membranes, Organic Electronics
Deadline for abstract submission: 15 December 2011

CARBON2011 (24-29 July 2011, Shanghai, China)
The Annual World Conference on Carbon, which is held in the American, Asian, and European continents alternately since 2000, is a unique chance for the academic and industrial people involved in the science and technology of carbon materials and relative fields to assemble and discuss their current research. East China University of Science and Technology, University of Shanghai for Science and Technology, and Institute of Coal Chemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences, co-host the Carbon2011 under the guidance the Asian Association of Carbon Groups.
With the rapid development of carbon science and technology, carbon materials play an important role in our daily life. Carbon is old, but it is new. With discoveries of fullerene in 1985, carbon nanotube in 1991 and graphene in 2004, carbon always attracts much attention. “Nice Carbon, Nice Life” is the theme for Carbon2011 and will become a forever theme.
The conference will cover all topics on Carbon Materials and Application. Sessions will be organized around the following topics:
1 Graphene
2 Nanocarbons
3 Carbon for Energy Storage and Conversion
4 Porous carbon and Adsorption
5 Carbon Fibers and Composites
6 Precursor, Carbonization and Graphitization
7 Computation and Modeling
8 Bio-carbon and Safety
9 Novel Experimental Techniques and Characterization
10 Bulk Carbon and Industrial ApplicationsNANOCARBONS 2011
Researchers from the Physical and Life Sciences are invited to participate in the **Nanocarbons 2011** Conference.
This conference is organised by the European Science Foundation (ESF).
The conference will take place on **6 - 11 September 2011** at Hotel Villa del Mare, Acquafredda di Maratea, Italy.
Submission Deadline: **29 May 2011**
**Grants for Young and Early Stage Researchers available.**
Further information can be found below and at: www.esf.org/conferences/11363
**Nanocarbons 2011: Carbon Nanotubes and Related Materials: From Physico-Chemical Properties to Biological and Environmental Effects**
6 - 11 September 2011
**Chaired by:**
**Dr. Sophie Lanone**, Inserm U955 - Équipe 04, FR
**Co-Chairs:**
**Dr. Pascale Launois**, CNRS-Université Paris 11, FR
**Professor Philippe Lambin**, University of Namur, BE
**Professor Stephen Klaine**, Clemson University, US
Programme
Nanomaterials have specific properties mainly governed by quantum physics or surface effects, and significantly different from those of macroscopic objects. Emblematic nanomaterials are carbon nanotubes, which have generated a worldwide, and highly competitive, scientific research activity. The general aim of this conference is, thanks to its pluridisciplinary approach, to give the different actors of carbon nanotubes (CNT) research (physicists, chemists, biologists) the proper level of knowledge required to discuss with the other participants and understand each other correctly. The conference will therefore propose courses accessible to scientists of different fields, as well as more specialized courses in each domain of interest, including the most recent advances on the subject. The program will focus on four general topics: synthesis/characterization of CNT, CNT chemistry, health effects of CNT, and environmental effects of CNT. This conference should allow scientists from the different fields to acquire, increase and share their specific knowledge, and to make their own research understandable to scientists from other disciplines.
