Topics and Format
LEES 08, co-organized by the University of British Columbia and Simon Fraser University, will be a forum for the interdisciplinary discussion of the low-energy electrodynamics of solids, at both the theoretical and experimental level, with specific emphasis on the electronic and magnetic properties of quantum materials. Oral presentations of 30 minutes (25 + 5 min. of questions) are planned for daytime sessions and symposia. Ample time will be dedicated to discussion, to facilitate exchange of ideas and cross-fertilization. Poster (48x48 inch) presentations will be held in the afternoons/evenings and will be on display from Monday to Thursday. There will be no parallel sessions and attendance is limited to approximately 100 participants. Students are encouraged to participate. List of Topics - Microwave, terahertz, infrared, and optical spectroscopy
- Spin and angle-resolved photoemission
- X-ray and neutron scattering
- Ultrafast, time-resolved spectroscopies
- Scanning Tunneling Spectroscopy

- Low-dimensional electronic systems
- Giant and colossal magnetoresistance materials
- Unconventional superconductivity
- Novel correlated materials and metamaterials
- Multilayers, surfaces, and interfaces
- Carbon nanotubes, graphene, and fullerenes
