Functional materials are highly demanded in every application area, especially semiconductors, energy and etc. However, each area can never develop well independently. Aiming to expand collaboration networks and to share ideas from different areas, 3 closely collaborated labs initiated the event, including:

Tanaka-lab in SANKEN, The University of Osaka. https://www.sanken.osaka-u.ac.jp/labs/bis/

Ohta-lab in Hokkaido University. https://functfilm.es.hokudai.ac.jp/english/

Kageyama-lab in Kyoto University. http://www.ehcc.kyoto-u.ac.jp/eh10/

This time, we have invited domestic and oversea talents who are recognized as specialized in material synthesis, advanced measurements and application development to share their wisdom with us! We hope this annual event can expand the understanding and collaboration between crossover areas and we warmly welcome your participation!
