The Conference, sponsored by the International Union of Pure and Applied Physics, will emphasize topics which are developing rapidly. These will include optical properties, including non-linear and highexcitation effects, magneto optics; light scattering; surface and interface properties; many-body effects; new materials; transport-phenomena, especially low mobilities and hot electrons; lattice dynamics, especially microscopic aspects; photoemission.

29 May—I June 1974 International Symposium on Electronic Properties of Oxides/Applications and Science. A multi-sponsored International Symposium will be held at Purdue University, West Lafayette, Indiana on May 29 through June 1, 1974. The charter of the Symposium is to assess the current status of the science and technologt pertaining to electronic properties of oxides, to determine the directions in which science and technology are currently progressing, and to determine what additional science is needed to accelcrate the rate of technological applications. In addition, it is hoped that the Symposium will aid in the transfer of knowledge to specific problems in fields other than electronics, such as catalysis. Session topics will include Switching, Catalysis, High Temperature Conductor/Insulators, Optical, Magnetic Semiconductors, Films and Coatings, and Low Temperature Conductivity.
