Scope

In the development of new fields in Advanced Materials Science and Technology, Organic 
Materials are playing a key role not only as genuine compounds but also as functional 
matrix. The primary reason is related to the possibility to tailor the physico-chemical 
properties of Organic Materials by suitable molecular designs. Therefore, Organic 
Materials have been promoted to a bright future especially in the field of electronics 
and photonics (optoelectronics).

For researchers both from the academic and industrial spheres it is essential to keep 
up with the quick development of new materials and their potential applications. Large 
scale international conferences would be able to cover this requirement, but more 
effective are small size topical meetings and symposia. 

According to this strategy we organized the 1st Japan-France Joint Forum (JFJF'1) in 
1993 at the Institute of Physical and Chemical Research (RIKEN), Wako, Japan, and 
JFJF'2 in 1995 at the Headquarter of CNRS, Paris, France, to exchange ideas regarding 
the most advanced research on organic electronics and photonics and to initiate new 
relationships between French and Japanese researchers. Both forums were very 
successful, so we have planned the 3rd one in 1998 in Tsukuba, Japan. The forum will 
cover molecular electronics, organic conductors, nonlinear optics, liquid crystals, 
Langmuir-Blodgett films, biological molecules and so forth.

Meeting Venue

All lectures well be given in the Auditorium of AIST, Tsukuba, and posters will be 
displayed in the lobby of the Auditorium.

Official Language

English

Pre-Registration and Final Registration

Please send the pre-registratin form to the JFJF'3 Secretariat by JANUARY 30, 1998. 
If you plan to give a presentation, please attach a 1-page abstract (A4, including 
figures and tables) and send it to the JFJF'3 Secretariat by JANUARY 30, 1998 (Dead 
line). 
Since the submitted papers are selected and classified for oral or poster presentation 
on the basis of the abstracts, the latter should be as informative as possible. The 
organizing committee keeps the right to decide whether the submitted papers is schedule 
as oral or poster presentation. 

	The registration fee is 30,000 JPYen for each participant (10,000 JPYen for students). 
Please send the remittance by BANK TRANSFER to:
	Exotic Nanomaterials/ Tomoko Nakagawa  
	Sanwa Bank/ Ooizumi Branch/ Japan
	Account Number:  3845761
by FEBRUARY 15, 1998.

Oral Presentation

Time allotted to:
Plenary lecture: 60 min.
Invited presentation: 45 min. (40 min. for presentation and 5 min. for discussion).
Oral presentation: 25 min. (20 min. for presentation and 5 min. for discussion).

Poster Presentation

The size of poster panel is: 120 cm (width) x 90 cm (height). 
Please set the posters during the lunch time of April 7 (Tue), since the Poster Session 
is schedule from 15:30 to 17:30 in the lobby of Auditorium, AIST.

Proceedings

The Conference Proceedings will be published in a special issue of Molecular Crystals 
and Liquid Crystals (Gordon and Breach Science Publishers, Inc.) to be edited by H. 
Sasabe and D. Fichou.  Instructions how to prepare the manuscripts (about 6 pages in A4 
paper with 1.5 line spacing) will be sent to the principal author of each presentation.  
Manuscripts will be refereed according to the Journal's usual high standards. Original 
manuscripts in camera-ready  form plus two clean copies should be submitted to the 
Conference Secretariat by APRIL 8, 1998. All the registered participants (except 
students) will receive a copy of proceedings by free of charge as a compliment of 
Gordon and Breach Science Publishers, Inc.
