Scope:

In this symposium, we will provide a place to present the research on carbon-based nanomaterials. The purpose of this symposium is to provide a meaningful forum for experimental and theoretical research results on synthesis, physical properties and applications. In addition to fullerenes, carbon nanotubes, and graphene, the target substances are nanocarbon materials with new forms based on these (carbon nanowalls, graphene, graphene oxide, diamonds, diamond-like carbon, marimocarbon, carbon quantum dots, etc.). We look forward to presenting research results at the forefront of nanocarbon material researches on interesting physical properties such as electrical and magnetic properties, mechanical properties and catalytic activities, corresponding to the unique structure of carbon-based materials. We welcome presentations on environmentally friendly synthesis methods for nanocarbon materials, such as the use of biomass et al. We also welcome various applied research using carbon materials, such as development of biomolecular compatible materials, fuel cells, electric double layer capacitors, solar cells, LEDs, and various sensors et al.
