Invitation

You are cordially invited to take part in and to contribute to the 21st International Conference on Ion-Surface Interactions – ISI-2013 – that will be held from 22nd till 26th August 2013inYaroslavl – the small town of 250 km from Moscow

History and Scope

ISI-2013 will be the next one in a series of traditional biennial meetings promoting growth and exchange of scientific information on the physics of atomic collisions with solids, and related topics. Beginning with 1971, the conferences were held in Kharkov, Moscow, Kiev, Minsk, and then, starting from 1991, in the town of Zvenigorod near Moscow.

The scientific programmeof ISI-2013 will include invited plenary talks as well as oral and poster presentations held in the following sequential sections:

  1. Sputtering, surface erosion, desorption.
  2. Ion scattering and penetration.
  3. Emission of ions, electrons, photons and
    X-rays under ion-surface interaction.
  4. Ion implantation and surface modification.
  5. Ion-assisted processes in nanostructures and thin films.
  6. Plasma-surface interaction – physics and technology.

Language

The working language of the conference will be English (all oral presentations and posters). It is possible also to present posters in Russian, but titles, abstracts and figure captions should be in English
