Solid State Physics – here to be understood as Condensed Matter Science (Physics, Materials Science, Chemistry...) – is a fascinating area of knowledge representing an appreciable cross section of all the research being carried out worldwide. One unique feature of Condensed Matter Science is its intrinsic multi-disciplinarity. Its diverse ramifications range from Materials Science and Biophysics to more traditional areas such as Metals and Semiconductors. Over the years Condensed Matter has been the cradle of fundamental discoveries in Physics, e. g., the exciting Graphene physics (Nobel/2010) and the exotic novel Topological Insulators.

The several editions of the Latin American Symposium on Solid State Physics (SLAFES) have aimed at bringing together graduate students, postdoctoral researchers and Professors from Latin America into a unique forum to discuss recent advances in many subfields of Condensed Matter Science thus exchanging fruitful ideas. SLAFES XX will follow up with this tradition by inviting Physicists, Chemists, and Materials Scientists from all areas within Condensed Matter to attend the Symposium and present their works.

SLAFES XX will take place in the resort hotel Salinas do Maragogi, AL, March 27 - 31, 2011.
