Mini-workshop on Molecular Spintronics

Nano-Science Center, University of Copenhagen, 14-15 January 2010

The purpose of this meeting is to bring together a group of people interested in single molecule science and in particular the prospect of using magnetic molecules in solid state devices.

The program starts at 9 both days and the meeting will take place in: NBIA
