Particles 2007 is an international conference examining the science, technology, and business aspects of particle-based device technologies in different application
areas including data storage, electronics, photonics, displays, diagnostics, and advanced materials fabrication. The conference targets practicing scientists and engineers,
managers, innovators, and entrepreneurs, and embraces the theme "added value and advanced features from particle technology."
The conference format comprises a single track of 30 invited papers followed by a panel discussion of challenging issues. Contributed papers will be presented as posters
in the poster session.
