Conference Description
The Unconventional Semiconductors and Their Applications GRC is a premier, international scientific conference focused on advancing the frontiers of science through the presentation of cutting-edge and unpublished research, prioritizing time for discussion after each talk and fostering informal interactions among scientists of all career stages. The conference program includes a diverse range of speakers and discussion leaders from institutions and organizations worldwide, concentrating on the latest developments in the field. The conference is five days long and held in a remote location to increase the sense of camaraderie and create scientific communities, with lasting collaborations and friendships. In addition to premier talks, the conference has designated time for poster sessions from individuals of all career stages, and afternoon free time and communal meals allow for informal networking opportunities with leaders in the field.
Discovery of new materials has been the backbone of rapid technological revolution. Metal-halide perovskites and related emerging semiconductors have recently drawn enormous interest for their potential in cost-effective, high-performance optoelectronics. Discussions at this GRC will encompass fundamental materials physics and chemistry of the metal halides, as well as their applications in solar energy harvesting, energy-efficient lighting, and radiation detection.
The conference will consist of nine sessions, on the topics listed below. The conference chair is currently developing their preliminary program, which will include the names of the invited speakers and discussion leaders for each of these sessions. The preliminary program will be available by October 29, 2025. Please check back for updates.
