Intermolecular forces determine the properties that materials demonstrate. Interfacial phenomena happen at point of intersection between two material phases with different intermolecular force dimensions. The structures of materials in devices and molecules of living systems are determine by their intermolecular forces and their interactions with other systems at the molecular scale. This workshop’s main goal is to disseminate topics in science and engineering that refer to the fundamental understanding and resulting technological advances arising from the exploitation of new physical, chemical, and biological properties of systems that are govern by their size and interactions of molecules and bulk materials. During the last few years, novel structures, phenomena, and processes have been observed and determine by measuring intermolecular forces. New experimental, theoretical and simulation tools have been developed for investigating them such as the surface forces apparatus and the atomic force microscope. The six sessions that this workshop will foster, provide fresh opportunities for scientific and technological developments in biological, chemical and physical phenomena.
