The 16th edition of the ISE meetings focuses on charge storage and related phenomena (piezo- and ferroelectricity, NLO effects, electrical breakdown, …) in insulators and other material both from fundamental and applied points of view.

http://www.ise16.eu

Electret materials and related phenomena continue to receive much interest both from the fundamental and application point of view. Charge storage in insulators is crucial for many applications, involves a wide range of materials and, hence, is a frontier of many scientific domains. The ISE is therefore a unique meeting opportunity for scientists and engineers from all over the world working in the field of electrical engineering, materials science and engineering, condensed matter physics and chemistry, and a chance for communicating about recent advances and research and development efforts in these areas. It also provides a forum for in-depth discussions between the most experienced and established scientists and engineers and young researchers.

Ultra-High Temperature Ceramics are a family of compounds that display a unique set of properties, including extremely high melting temperatures (>3000°C), high hardness and good chemical stability and strength at high temperatures. Structural materials for use in high-temperature oxidizing environments are presently limited mostly to SiC, Si3N4, oxide ceramics and composites of these materials. The maximum use temperatures of silicon-based ceramics is limited to ~1600°C due to the onset of active oxidation (lower temperatures in water vapour environments), whilst oxides have exhibited high creep rates at higher temperatures. The development of structural materials for use in oxidizing and rapid heating environments at temperatures above 1600°C is therefore of great engineering importance.

A naive distinction between metals and insulators rests on the single-electron picture: completely filled or empty bands characterize insulators while metals have some partially filled bands. Nature, however, offers a much richer variety of behaviors: Mott insulators would be band metals in the absence of electron correlation while strongly-correlated metals behave quasiparticle-like only in the Fermi-liquid regime. Correlated metals and insulators can be distinguished by the gap in the spectral function. Superconductors form a class of their own, they have a single-electron gap but are not insulators. This year’s school addresses the rich physics of correlated insulators, metals, and superconductors. Insulators show complex ordering phenomena involving charge, spin, and orbital degrees of freedom. Correlated metals exhibit non-Fermi-liquid behavior except right at the Fermi surface. Superconductors are dominated by the delicate interplay of coupling bosons and quasiparticles. Along with the phenomena, the models and methods for understanding and classifying them will be explained. The aim of the school is to introduce advanced graduate students and up to the modern approaches for modeling strongly correlated materials and analyzing their behavior.
