Symposium DD: Applications of Synchrotron Radiation to Materials
Science A Special Session has been added to Symposium DD to handle Late Breaking News for this symposium. It is scheduled for Thursday morning, April 11 in the Sunset D Room of the San Francisco Marriott Hotel. The purpose of this symposium is to illustrate different types of information that can be obtained from synchrotron-related techniques in order to expand the use of this rather unique and powerful experimental approach in the academic, industrial, and government materials research arenas. Areas of investigation that can be performed include microtomography, spin-polarized photoemission, magnetic circular dichroism, grazing incidence x-ray diffraction, x-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) and near-edge structure (XANES), and x-ray fluorescence microprobe. This symposium encourages the submission of abstracts related to the application of the above (and related) techniques to the (not exclusively) following materials: * Alloys and metals * Superconductors, conductors, semiconductors, and insulators * Fullerenes and substituted fullerenes * Thin films and interfacially produced materials * Nanoparticles, clusters, and related systems * Magnetic materials This symposium is planned to consist of three days of oral presentations and a poster session. Joint sessions are anticipated with Symposium C: Compound Semiconductor Electronics and Photonics; Symposium P: Microporous and Macroporous Materials; Symposium W: Computational Materials Science - Structural, Mechanical, and Transport Properties; and Symposium AA: Innovations in Instrumentation for Materials Research. Partial list of invited speakers: Thomas Callcott (University of Tennessee); José Mustro de Leon (CINVESTA-Merida); Cliff Olson (Ames Laboratory); Doone Gibbs and William Thomlinson (Brookhaven National Laboratory); E.
