The Summer School on the physics and applications of nitrides addresses the fundamentals of nitride semiconductors and some modern issues in this research field, in a series of fourteen lectures in english given by industrial and academic experts.
This year, the Summer School on the physics and applications of nitrides
is co-organized by the UK nitride consortium and by the French GANEX
network, with some support from CNRS. It enters a cycle of biennial
schools organized by GANEX, with a first one organized in Montpellier-La
Grande Motte in 2013, and is the continuation of the three Ecoles
Thématiques du CNRS organized in Montpellier in 1997, Orcières-Merlette
in 2000, and La Plagne in 2002.
The Summer School on the physics and applications of nitrides in Nice in 2015 is to provide a general, up-to-date background on nitride semiconductors for an audience of PhD students and young researchers.
