Progress in Photoacoustic and Photothermal Phenomena: Focus on Biomedical,
Nanoscale, NDE, Gas Sensing, and Thermophysical Phenomena and Technologies 

ERICE - ITALY - October 16-23,  2021 

Directors: A.Mandelis & R. Li Voti

Deadline for abstract submission and registration - July 4th , 2021

 

 

We are pleased to inform you that the workshop entitled "Progress in
Photoacoustic and Photothermal Phenomena: Focus on Biomedical, Nanoscale
Imaging, NDE, Gas Sensing, and Thermophysical Phenomena and Technologies"
will be held at the Center Ettore Majorana in Erice (Sicily, Italy), in the
period October 16-23, 2021. (Additional information about the Center can be
found on the website at
http://www.sbai.uniroma1.it/conferenze/photoacoustic-photothermal/index.html
or  <http://www.ccsem.infn.it/> http://www.ccsem.infn.it/ )

            The aim of the workshop is to bring together scientists,
clinicians, engineers, technology developers and users who are involved or
interested in the Photoacoustic (PA) and Photothermal (PT) sciences, in the
wonderful atmosphere of the old pre-mediaeval monasteries of the Center
Ettore Majorana in Erice, in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea.

            This Foundation and Center for Scientific Culture has a long
tradition in the organization of Summer Schools, Workshops and International
Conferences, covering all branches of Science, in a tradition similar to the
Gordon Research Conferences. 

            The Workshop intends to bring together a group of invited
leading PA/PT scientists and expert practitioners developing current "hot"
and growing areas of our field, and participants who are active researchers,
users, entrepreneurs and technologists wishing to become involved. The
invited speakers will present topics in the focus areas of the Sixth
Workshop which will cover the following thematic subjects: 

 

Session A: Biomedical and Biological PA & PT  (A. Mandelis)

1.  Instrumentation design, software and signal generation techniques 

 for biomedical photoacoustic and photothermal imaging.

2.  Clinical applications of biomedical photoacoustics and photothermics

3.  Microscopy, spectroscopy and endoscopy

4.  Animal imaging

5.  Dyes, nanoparticles and other contrast agents

6.  Thermophotonics, thermography and other photothermal methodologies in
biomedicine 

7.  Photoacoustics and photothermics in biology

8. Biosensors

 

Session B: Nanoscale Heat Transfer and Imaging  (S. Volz and G. Tessier)  

9.  Ultrafast thermoelastic phenomena

10.  Thermal and elastic properties on the nanoscale

11. Picosecond and other ultrafast photoacoustics

12. Phonon Transport - Phononics

 

Session C: Non Destructive Evaluation & Testing  (C. Glorieux and X.
Maldague)

13. Infrared Thermography and Thermophotonic Imaging (non-biomedical)

14. Non-destructive testing and industrial applications

15. Depth profiling of materials and inverse problems

16. Environmental sensors, robotics and machine learning, new
instrumentation and methodology

 

Session D: Thermophysical and Diffusion-Wave Properties (R. Li Voti and A.
Mandelis)

17. Complex fluids, phase transitions and glass transitions

18. Spectroscopy, analytical chemistry, nonlinear optics and photochemistry

19. Thermophysical and thermodynamic properties using PA & PT  

20.Semiconductors, Photovoltaics, MEMS, NEMS

 

Session E: Gas Sensing and Spectroscopy and novel laser sources  (V.
Spagnolo and F. Tittel)

21. Photoacoustic and photothermal gas sensing

22. Mid-IR sources for gas sensing

23. Particulate sensing 

24. Industrial applications 

 

WORKSHOP FEE

The Workshop fee is 1000 Euro for each participant 

The fee will cover full board and lodging

1.       Registration to the Workshop 

2.       Accommodation (for the whole period October 16-23, 2021) 

3.       All meals (for the whole period October 16-23, 2021)

4.       Social Dinner

5.       Transfer to and from the local Airports (Trapani or Palermo). 

 

For your convenience we remind you that both Palermo and Trapani airports
are served by the low-cost airline company Ryanair (see
http://www.ryanair.com/), by Alitalia (see   <http://www.alitalia.com/>
http://www.alitalia.com/ ) and other companies. 

 

INTERNATIONAL SUMMER SCHOOL: 

In addition, students and newcomers to the field will, for the first time,
have the opportunity to attend the Summer School "Basic Photothermal and
Photoacoustic Techniques: Theory, Instrumentation and Applications" which
will be organized in parallel with the Workshop, at no additional fee. The
Summer School is organized in collaboration with the Graduate School of the
University of Nova Gorica, Slovenia, and will offer a transfer of 10 ECTS
credit points to participanting students.
