🔬 About the Symposium

This symposium aims to create a new trend to accelerate the search for functional quantum materials by bringing together experimental chemists and theorists with unique skills. The symposium covers topics such as superconductivity, magnetism, thermoelectrics, quantum electronics, and ionics, where further development of computational methods is awaited, as well as unique experimental methods as high-pressure synthesis, and computational methods for the efficient materials discovery.
