MORE 2012
Meeting on Optical Response in Extended Systems

November, 14-16 2012
Vienna/Austria

MORE 2012 follows the spirit of the highly successful Low Energy Spectrometry Symposiums (LESS 2007 and 2009) as well as MORE 2008 and 2010.

Optical absorption spectroscopy, resonant inelastic X-ray scattering, reflection EELS, ellipsometry, and reflectance difference spectroscopy are just a few of a large variety of experimental probes to explore the optical and higher-energy response of materials, including elemental solids, compounds, molecules on surfaces or complex nanostructures.

On the theoretical side many body perturbation theory (MBPT) and time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) represent state-of-the-art developments to describe excitation processes in materials. Both theory and experiment being complementary, ideally should go hand in hand to promote development and leading edge research.

Bringing together experimentalists and theoreticians of these different fields is the main intention of MORE 2012.
