Organic-Inorganic Materials as Functional Devices
The objective of this session is to provide opportunities to present and discuss recent advances, challenges and prospects in the design and development of organic-inorganic hybrid materials as functional devices. This session will span the fields of inorganic, organic, analytical chemistry and materials science. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: organic-inorganic materials for chemical and/or biological sensing and/or detection, hybrid materials for bio-imaging and/or drug delivery, functional nanocomposites.
