2024 Workshop on JUNCTIONS: Japan-US Network for Clean energy Technologies Involving Oriented Nanotubes

The "PIRE-JUNCTION" project, which the NSF-US and the JSPS-JPN support, is "Partnerships for International Research and Education (PIRE)"-"Japan-US Network for Clean Energy Technologies Involving Oriented Nanotubes (JUNCTION)". In this project, we will advance clean energy science and technologies using nanotubes and nanomaterials through various joint researches between US and Japan.

The project title is "JUNCTION". We put two meanings on the term of “JUNCTION". One is the“JUNCTION” for the US and Japanese scientists to facilitate collaboration research and education; the other is the “JUNCTION”of nanotubes, 2D materials, and nanomaterials where we have our scientific and technological interests. Here we organize the fourth workshop of this JUNCTION program (the 2nd in Japan). This workshop is intended to provide a forum for discussing science, measurement techniques, and applications relating the subject of “JUNCTION”. We wish the workshop can work as a JUNCTION to facilitate active collaborations among US-Japan researchers.

In this workshop, we have invited talks regarding the topics of oriented nanotubes, including carbon nanotubes and in-organic nanotubes (hetero-nanotubes), junctions at 2D interfaces, and THz spectroscopy, and have prominent exhibitors from the industrial side. We also offer a unique opportunity for you to present your work through a poster presentation. Your contribution will be a valuable addition to our workshop. If you want to join the WS with or without a poster presentation, please register here by the end of Aug. 2024.

We are looking forward to seeing you in Yokohama!
