EUROCVD-15, September 4 - 9, 2005, Bochum - Germany
About EUROCVD-15: General Information - Advisory Board - Invited Speakers

Conference Location:

The fifteenth EUROCVD conference will be held at the "Gastronomie im Stadt Park" in Bochum, Germany.
It will start on Sunday, 4th September 2005, with a Welcome Reception and end on Friday, 9th September 2005.
The conference venue is located in the centre of the city park of Bochum and provides a comfortable, relaxed
atmosphere. Early September in Bochum is a time of bright sunny days and pleasant temperatures.

Address of the conference venue:
Gastronomie im Stadtpark

Bochum is a city in North Rhine-Westphalia (NRW), Germany. It is located in the Ruhr-Area between the cities of Essen and Dortmund. Bochum provides many opportunities. The city is actually much greener than one would think. Part of the city centre is a designated leisure area. Bochum is a model for the structural change of the whole Ruhr industrial region.
Although Bochum was founded in the 14th century, the town was insignificant until the 19th century, when coal mining and steel industry emerged in the Ruhr area, leading to the growth of the entire region. The population of Bochum increased tenfold between 1850 and 1890. Between 1960 and 1973, all the mines were closed. Other industries, such as car manufacturing, compensated for the loss of jobs. Two castles from the "Middle Ages"have survived on the northern banks of the Ruhr river. More famous are the German Mining Museum, and the nostalgic Train Museum in the borough of Dahlhausen. In 1965 the Ruhr University was founded (the first university to be founded in post-war Federal Republic of Germany). Of course, vital and vitalizing features of the town are the students of the Ruhr-University (RUB), the largest in Ruhr-Area and a thriving pub culture of the "Bermuda triangle" the night-life district in the city centre.

Scope and Topics

EUROCVD-15 will continue the biannual series of European CVD conferences started in Paris (1977) where its 25th anniversary has been celebrated in 2003 as CVD-XVI/EUROCVD-14 joint meeting with the Electrochemical Society (beginning in 1970). EUROCVD-13 was held in Athens (2001) and CVD-XV was held in Toronto (2000). These conferences offer a comprehensive review of the most recent research on chemical vapor deposition and related topics.

CVD is a versatile process for manufacturing thin films and nanomaterials of most different kinds. Products range from electronic and optical devices to smart coatings, chemical sensors, micromachines and heterogeneous catalysts. This conference will provide an opportunity to present and review new research on both fundamental and applied topics, to exchange ideas, and to promote international cooperation.

Papers describing the use of CVD to deposit novel materials (such as nanoscale- and biomaterials, polymers, transparent conducting oxides (TCO), electrochromics and micromachines) are particularly encouraged, as are papers discussing the application of new theoretical methods for modelling materials (such as density functional theory (DFT) and all-electron methods).
