The National Conference on Quantum Matter Heterostructures (QMH) is being organized by Institute of Physics (IoP), Bhubaneswar. This conference focuses on the research activities related to Thin films and Heterostructures of Quantum Materials. QMH are enticing for science and technology. Unprecedented effects can occur if Quantum materials are stacked in superlattice structure and /or perturbed by tuning parameters. This conference aims to discuss the present status, limitations, perspectives, and challenges in the field of QMH. The proposed conference is a unique one and first of its kind in India that will provide an ideal platform to discuss the emerging trends in the area QMH and foster collaboration. Leading experts will be invited to deliver talks in the conference. Very limited talks based on the submitted abstracts will be reserved for young researchers i.e. Ph.D scholars, Post-Docs and young scientists. There will also be poster sessions for young researchers to present their work. Let us hope to organise such meeting annually so that researchers working in the area of Thin films and Heterostructures of Quantum Materials can meet and interact.

Scope of the Conference

The conference focuses on understanding the emergent electromagnetic phenomena in designer thin films/ heterostructures/hybrids of quantum materials. Some of the themes include:

1. Thin films/heterostrucutures of spin-orbit coupled systems
2. Complex oxide thin films/heterostrucutures and novel interfacial phenomena
3. Thin films/heterostrucutures of topological materials
4. Hybrid layers and related proximity effect
5. Novel magnetism and superconductivity in thin films/heterostructures
6. Skyrmions in magnetic thin films and interfaces

Toshali Sands Resort Puri located in Puri-Konark marine drive provides an excellent location for organising conference. The beauty and ambience of the location along with its sophisticated facilities is well suited for hosting confeences.
