WELCOME

Dear Colleagues and Friends,

It is a great pleasure to announce the CSRC workshop "Spin Coherence and Topological Order in Semiconductor Nanosystems", which will be held in Beijing from November 2 to 4, 2016.  The workshop is organized by the Beijing Computational Science Research Center (CSRC) at its Home Building in Zhongguancun Software Park II.

The workshop will focus on theoretical and experimental aspects related to semiconductor nanostructures, with special attention to spin coherence and the realization of topological states of matter. Other topics broadly connected to quantum information and quantum phenomena in solid-state devices are also relevant for this workshop. We hope that the event will serve as an important platform for exchange of ideas and in-depth discussions on a wide spectrum of forefront topics in this area.

This workshop is open to scientists and graduate students in related fields. To request further information you may contact the workshop secretary, Ms. Wei LIU, at spinto2016@csrc.ac.cn.

We are looking forward to your participation!
