Scope
The metastable ceramic, metals and polymers materials include solid solutions such as metallic glasses, bulk glass formers, new oxide/ceramic glasses and metastable crystalline polymorphs of intermetallics and other stoichiometric compounds.
In this perspective, the workshop will cover the thermodynamics, preparation, structure and properties of metastable and nanomaterials.
The NANOMAT 2009 will also cover studies of nano-interfaces and grain boundaries as well as studies regarding their evolution and applications of improved nano-scale characterization methods. Finally, properties, including magnetic, electronic, electrochemical, catalytic and optical will be covered both from applied and fundamental perspectives. In this case also health issues are covered.
