Scope of the PSE Conference:

Applications of Plasma and Ion Beam Techniques in Surface Engineering and their Fundamentals

The Ninth International Conference on Plasma Surface Engineering will be held from Monday, September 13 to Friday, September 17, 2004, at Garmisch-Partenkirchen. The Conference is organized by the European Joint Committee on Plasma and Ion Surface Engineering.

In view of the strong interest in the eight preceding PSE conferences with more than 600 delegates from Europe and overseas countries, these biennial conferences have become a well-established and prominent forum in the field of plasma and ion/particle beam assisted surface and thin film technology. It is the aim of the PSE conferences to provide an opportunity for the presentation of recent progress in research, development and applications of plasma and ion/particle beam surface modification and engineering, and of plasma and ion/particle beam assisted deposition of coatings and thin films. The presentations will contribute to the clarification of the relationships between the process parameters, the structural properties and the functional properties of the modified surface coatings and thin films, so as to bridge the gap between those involved in basic research and those who have to meet the rapidly increasing demands of industrial applications.

Speakers from industrial companies will discuss specific practical examples of the successful implementation of plasma and ion-based processes in product applications. Special attention will be paid to the performance and cost benefits obtained. The workshop will be organized by the VDI Technology Center in cooperation with the Society of Vacuum Coaters (SVC).

Job Placement Center / Technology Placement Center

At PSE 2004 a "Job Placement Center" will be set up as a contact point for job seekers and organisations recruiting new personnel. The "Technology Placement Center" will act as an intermediary for scientific/technological queries and will support cooperative ventures and proposals for problem-solving.

Information and Registration

All information about the conference is available at the this conference website including the order forms for pre-registration, abstract submission and final registration.

Conference Proceedings

The proceedings of the conference will be published as a regular or special issue of an international journal. All manuscripts will be refereed as customary for original papers. Authors will be informed about the length and the details for the preparation of the manuscripts upon acceptance of their contributions.

Conference Language

All abstracts and manuscripts must be submitted in English. The invited and contributed talks as well as the poster presentations will be given in English, the official conference language.

Venue

The location of the 9th International Conference on Plasma Surface Engineering is again the congress center of Garmisch-Partenkirchen. Situated 60 miles (110 km) south of Munich, Garmisch-Partenkirchen is a well-known resort in the foothills of the Bavarian Alps, nestling in an enchanting landscape of mountains, lakes, villages, baroque churches, and famous castles of the Bavarian kings. It is easy to reach by train from Munich Main Station and Munich International Airport. Access by car via Autobahn A95 from Munich to Garmisch-Partenkirchen is also straightforward.

Social Programme

Conference delegates and accompanying persons are invited to join a welcome reception on Monday, September 13, 2004 and the reception by the Mayor of Garmisch-Partenkirchen. Following the tradition of the previous PSE conferences, the conference dinner will be held as a "Social Evening" on Wednesday, September 15, 2004.

Accomodation

Because Garmisch Partenkirchen and Upper Bavaria are very popular in the fall season, an early hotel reservation is strongly recommended. Please make your reservation with the final circular.
