Conference Info

Since 1995, Conference on Cryocrystals and Quantum Crystals (CC) has been the important international forum for presenting new results on physics and chemistry of atomic and molecular solids such as rare gas solids, hydrogens, nitrogen, oxygen, methanes, helium isotopes, water ice, etc..

The scope of CC is wide, including, but not limited to, films, nanoscale systems, charged species in cryocrystals, spectroscopy of cryocrystals, ultra-low temperature and high-pressure studies, matrix isolation in cryocrystals, ultrafast dynamics in crystals, order-disorder phenomena, technological applications and instrumentation.

We encourage submissions of papers to CC-2008 that report on advances in these core areas, as well as those peripherial to them.

The CC-2008 conference organized jointly by the Institute of Low Temperature and Structure Research (Polish Academy of Sciences) and Faculty of Fundamental Problems of Technology (Wrocław University of Technology) and Committee of Physics Polish Academy of Sciences will be held from July 31th to August 5th in Wroclaw, Poland. The conference is a satellite of and preceeds the 25th International Conference on Low Temperature Physics, which will be held August 6th through August 13th in Amsterdam, The Netherlands.

The present conference CC-2008 is a continuation of the series which started with meeting in Almaty (Alma-Ata) Kazakhstan. The next two conferences took place in Poland, in September 1997 in Polanica Zdroj and in August 2000 in Szklarska Poreba. In 2002 the conference was held in Friesing (Germany) and in 2004 - in Wroclaw (Poland). The last edition was held in Kharkov (Ukraine) in 2006.

The general approach of the Conference aims at organizing a forum for exchange ideas on various aspects of physical, chemical and technological properties of solidified gases, and gathering together the best experts in the field.
