Presenting original research papers and comments, originating from this world renowned series of meetings in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry.
Faraday Discussion 134: Atomic Transport and Defect Phenomena in Solids
Faraday Discussion 134 took place at the University of Surrey in Guildford from 10 - 12 July 2006.
The meeting focussed on the recent advances in atomic transport in solids, driven by scientific problems and by technological needs for improved materials. The meeting covered a wide variety of systems, including lithium batteries, fuel cells, membranes, and nanostructured materials, and discussed a number of techniques, including computer modelling, spectroscopy and microscopy.
