Abstract

Abstract : Preface This volume contains a collection of papers of the 12th International Conference on Excitonic and Photonic Processes in Condensed Matter and Nano Materials (EXCON 2018). EXCON 2018 was held in the historic city of Nara, Japan, on July 8-13, 2018. The previous eleven EXCON conferences were held in Darwin, Australia (1994), Kurort Gohrisch, Germany (1996), Boston, USA (1998), Osaka, Japan (2000), Darwin, Australia (2002), Kraków, Poland (2004), Winston-Salem, USA (2006), Kyoto, Japan (2008), Brisbane, Australia (2010), Groningen, The Netherlands (2012) and Montréal, Canada (2015). The EXCON series of conferences has provided an interdisciplinary forum for mutual research communications among solid-state physicists, photo-physicists, photo-chemists, photo-biologists, material scientists, and device-oriented researchers from academia and industry.A variety of excitonic and photonic phenomena in diverse materials from bulk materials to micro- and nanostructures have been covered in the conferences, such as quantum dots, metallic antennas, atomic-layer materials, bio-materials and molecular materials. The complete list of topics covered by EXCON 2018 is as follows: –Coherent excitonic processes, including multi-excitonic processes; –Excitonic and photonic phenomena in nanostructures; –Excitonic and photonic phenomena in atomic-layer materials; –Strong light-matter coupling through microcavities, photonic crystals, and plasmonic structures; –Exciton-lattice interaction and photo-induced phase transition; –Excited states in disordered and amorphous systems; –Excitonic processes in organic materials and polymers; –High-density excitonic systems and condensation; –Light-matter interaction in metamaterials; –Excitonic processes in photovoltaic materials and devices; –Ultrafast dynamics of excitonic relaxation, energy transport, and charge transfer; –Applications of excitonic and photonic processes in quantum information processing; –Optical devices: LEDs and solar cells in inorganic and organic systems; –Optical manipulation of nanostructures; –New experimental techniques applied to excitonic and photonic processes; –New theoretical and computational techniques applied to excitonic and photonic processes.
