10th International Conference on Spontaneous Coherence in Excitonic Systems

Coming to Arts Centre Melbourne, Australia 28-31 January 2020, the 10th International Conference on Spontaneous Coherence in Excitonic Systems (ICSCE10) aims to bring together the community of researchers studying quantum collective phenomena in various kinds of electronic excitations in solids, and related phenomena in other physical systems. Taking a broader perspective on spontaneous coherence effects, conference topics will include:

1. Interlayer and indirect excitons
2. Novel materials (organics, perovskites, 2D monolayers)
3. Exciton-polaritons
4. Quantum dots
5. Ultrastrong coupling
6. Spontaneous coherence in cold atomic, plasmonic, and other systems.
