ICNFA2011 is now accepting papers on the following topics through its OpenConf system. Shall you have a paper on an additional topic, please write an email to ICNFA2011@International-ASET.com . The current topics are as follows:

• Modeling and Simulation

• Nanotechnology and Energy

• Nanotechnology and Environment

• Nanotechnology, Products and Markets

• Nanomedical Applications: Drug Delivery, and Tissue Engineering

• Nanomaterials, Nanodevices: Fabrication, Characterization and Application

• Societal aspects of Nanotechnology: Ethics, Risk Assessment, Standardization

• Nanotechnology and Education

• Nanocatalysis

• Nanoelectronics

• Nanotechnology and Agriculture

• Nanotechnology and Polymer

• Nanobiotechnologies

• Nanobiomechanics

• Nanotechnology and Coating

• Nano-Graphene

Manuscripts are invited for the 2^nd International Conference on Nanotechnology: Fundamentals and Applications on topics lying within the scope of the conference. All contributions must be original and should not have been published elsewhere.

Two types of papers could be published in the conference proceedings:

• Full Papers

• Extended Abstracts

you may choose to submit either type based on the the weight of the contributions in your manuscript.

Extended Abstracts must give a clear indication of the objectives, scope, and results of the paper, and must contain an introduction, a results and discussion, and a reference section.

Full Papers are limited to 4-8 pages and are more descriptive of the work that you have done. Moreover, more images, graphs, and results could be presented. Full Papers must at least contain an abstract, an introduction, a results and discussion, and a reference section.

Please note that a .doc template is available to guide the authors in formatting their papers (Full Papers). For extended abstracts similar formatting must be used.

Papers should be prepared in English and carefully checked for correct grammar. Figures should be of high quality. To ensure high scientific quality, all papers will be reviewed by the Scientific Committee Members. All papers must be submitted in electronic form using the web site of the conference.

Once the reviewing process is complete, the contact author of each paper will be notified of the result, by e-mail. The authors are required to follow the reviews in order to improve their paper before their final submission.

All accepted full papers and extended abstracts will be published in the proceedings, under an ISBN reference in a DVD-ROM support. Selected papers will have the opportunity to be published in special issues at International Journal of Nano and Biomaterials (IJNBM) after peer review.

All oral and poster papers must be presented by one of the authors. At least one author must register for the conference and pay the fee prior to June 15, 2011 in order for the paper to be published in the conference proceedings and retained in the final program.

The best student poster presentation chosen by the Scientific Committee will be rewarded one year of online subscription to Journal of Materials Chemistry. Journal of Materials Chemistry is the first weekly journal in the materials field. The journal is interdisciplinary, publishing work of international significance on all aspects of materials chemistry. Articles cover the fabrication, properties and applications of materials, including nanoscience, synthesis, structural characterization and modeling.
