The “Workshop on NanoTechnologies for Electronics and Photonics“ (NTEP) that was proposed by CINTRA, has been held the 29 of June 2010 in Thales Research Technology (Palaiseau, France) and the 1st of July 2010 in XLIM UMR Université de
Limoges/CNRS (Limoges, France).
Approximately 100 people from several CNRS Research Units (IEF, LPN, LPICM, UMPhi, MPQ, LTM, INL, LAAS, FEMTO, IEMN), Thales (TRT, TAS, …) and from NTU/CINTRA attended this workshop. Interesting presentations and discussions on nanotechnologies as well as their applications for nanoelectronics and nanophotonics were given. A highlight of the workshop was the presentation of the Nobel Prize, Albert Fert on his research activities.
On the CINTRA website, you will find all the presentations given during the workshop at the following link.

This workshop contributed to reinforce the networking between French and Singaporean researchers and future promising collaborations will start soon with joint research projects and researchers exchanges. Currently, several projects are being drafted between CINTRA, NTU, TRT and other CNRS French Units.
To conclude, thank you very much to E Lansard (TRT director), P Klinge (TRT), D Dolfi (TRT), J Chazelas (TSA) and D Cros (XLIM director), C Darraud (XLIM) for their valuable efforts for co-organizing the workshop. I want also like to thank people from TRT and XLIM for their warm welcome and all the speakers for their contributions.
Finally, to satisfy expectations of many participants we already plan to organize the second edition of this workshop in Singapore in 2011. So, welcome to Singapore next year.
