The scope of the iPlasmaNano conferences is plasma nanoscience/nanotechnology and its applications.

Topics to be covered include:

• Fabrication of inorganic nanomaterials and nanostructures using vacuum or atmospheric plasmas or ion beams and control of their functionality and surface properties
• Fabrication of organic nanomaterials and nanostructures and control of their functionality (materials include (but are not limited to): graphene, carbon, polymers, or other organic materials (e.g., biomaterials)
• New plasma processes in vacuum or atmospheric pressure for nanoscale fabrication, green nanofabrication, improvement of industrial processes, sustainable lifecycles of natural resources
• Applications of plasma nanotechnology in the life sciences and chemistry including: diagnostics / monitoring (integration in sensors, biosensors, lab-on-chip, MEMS, etc.)
• Plasma nanocatalysis
• Applications of plasma nanotechnology in photonics and plasmonics
• Applications of plasma nanotechnology in energy and energy harvesting devices
• Plasmas at new spatiotemporal scales: micro and nanoplasmas, nanosecond pulsing, nanoplasmas generated by ultrafast intense radiation
• Modeling and diagnostics of plasmas during nanomaterial growth or etching
• Plasmas formed at the surface of or inside liquids
• Entrepreneurial efforts in plasma nanotechnology (e.g. new spin-off companies and products)
• New vacuum or atmospheric plasma sources for plasma nanotechnology
