   Advances in Terahertz Spectroscopy and Imaging (#413)

   

   THE INTERNATIONAL CHEMICAL CONGRESS OF

   PACIFIC BASIN SOCIETIES

   Honolulu, Hawaii, USA  DECEMBER 15 - 20, 2015

   Dear Colleague:

   It is our great pleasure to announce a symposium on “Advances in Terahertz Spectroscopy and Imaging” at the Pacifichem 2015 in Hawaii. Please see the link above for details. Contributions are solicited addressing subjects from all walks of terahertz applications. As an emerging area of science and technology, terahertz applications, such as spectroscopy, reflectometry and imaging, have the potential for addressing some of the critical problems of the 21st century. As indicated by increased attendance and number of papers in the past, the proposed symposium will fill a gap in the technical program by attracting the terahertz spectroscopy and related communities from all over the world. While there are other spectroscopic techniques, terahertz technology provides unique information that is not available from the predecessors. Therefore, this symposium solicits papers on the advances of terahertz applications in crucial matters such as: biomedical research, early detection of skin cancer, transdermal drug delivery, biopharmaceuticals, materials for energy, conservation and forensic science, security & screening, geology and minerals, semiconductors and any other relevant areas. This symposium will present an opportunity for the exchange of knowledge in a global forum, including results and discussions of current and breakthrough terahertz techniques and their applications. Papers, including spectroscopic, reflectometry and imaging techniques on the above mentioned areas and other terahertz applications in solving important problems are welcome. Formal abstracts submission will be open from January 1 – April 15, 2015. See this link for details of submission:  http://www.pacifichem.org/congress-details/abstracts/
