the properties of these two classes of materials and between luminescence and other branches of solid state physics and molecular physics. Problems of important applications of luminescence phenomena, but not of those of device technology, are included as well. Information: Prof. Shigeo Shionoya, The Institute for Solid State Physics, The University of Tokyo, Roppongi, Minato-ku, Tokyo 106, Japan. 8—11 September 1975 5th International Symposium on Boron and Borides, Bordeaux, France. The 5th International Symposium on Boron and Borides will be held from Monday, September 8th through Thursday, September 11th, at the University of Bordeaux, Talence (France). It may be considered as a continuation of the meetings previously held at Asberry Park (1959), Paris (1964), Warsaw (1968) and Thilsi (1972). The symposium will deal with the following topics: Crystal chemistry of boron modifications and boronrich borides; Chemical bonding in borides; Relationship between crystal structures and physical properties; Industrial applications in the fields of refractory materials, semiconductors, thermionic emission, hard alloys, fibers and composite materials, etc... Papers on the subjects discussed in previous meetings such as, new syntheses, purification, crystal growth and physico-chemical properties are also accepted. The symposium is organized by the Laboratory of Solid State Chemistry of the CNRS, University of Bordeaux, 33405 Talence (France). \Information: R. Naslain, Chairman, Laboratoire de Chimie du Solide du C.N.R.S. Université de Bordeaux I, 351 cours de la Liberation, 33405 Talence, France.

8—12 September 1975 ESSDERC, 1975.5th European Solid State Device Research Conference, Grenoble, France. The fifth European Solid State Device Research Conference will be held at the University of Grenoble, France from 8—12 September 1975. It is sponsored by the European Physical Society (E.P.S.), the Societe Francaise de Physique (S.F.P.) and the Societe des Electriciens, des Electroniciens et des Radioelectriciens (s.E.E.). The scope of the conference is along the previous ones and will cover applied research on devices mainly in the following fields: semiconductors (analog, logic, memories, etc,...) —

displays, electro optics, micorwaves, surface waves.

either at the research and design levels. The conference will feature a series of invited talks by distinguished workers in the field. Invited talks are planned on the following subjects. — —

Netherlands. This Conference is the fourth of the series. Previous conferences were held at Nottingham (1968), Toulouse (1971) and Gainesville (1972). The scope of the conference includes all basic experimental and theoretical problems of fluctuation of phenomena associated with solid state devices, with spatial emphasis on the physical aspects. Information: Dr. T.G.M. Kleinpenning, Department of Electrical Engineering, University of Technology, PostOfficeBox5l3, Eindhoven, The Netherlands.

1—3 December 1975 International Conference on Low Lying Lattice Vibrational Modes and thefr Relationship to Superconductivity and Ferroelectricity, San Juan, Puerto Rico.

An International Conference on Low Lying Lattice Vibrational Modes and their Relationship to Superconductivity and Ferroelectricity will be held in San Juan, Puerto Rico on December 1, 2 and 3, 1975 under the sponsorship of the University of Puerto Rico and the American Physical Society. A special session on Ferroelectric Material will be held in Mayaguez, Puerto Rico on December 4, 1975. The meeting will be open to all interested scientists. It is becoming increasingly evident that a great many electrical phenomena, especially those associated with phase transitions are strongly correlated with phonon spectra and the interactions of lattice vibrations with other excitation or relaxations. Broadly grouped, these transitions give rise to polarization and conductivity anomalies. With a few exceptions, most workers in these two areas have had very little interaction with each other. We, therefore, propose to bring these groups together in a conference organized by “technique” rather than by topic (so that scientists from both areas may participate in the same sessions) with phase transitions, electron states and lattice vibrations as unifying themes.

The Conference will be concerned with: ~m cony 1. Lattice Dynamics of Ferroelectnics, Frohlich and Pieris Transitions. 2. Electron—phonon interactions and electronic structure. 3. Superconducting, ferroelectric phase transitions and critical phenomena. II. Spectroscopy. 1. Neutron Scattering. 2. I.R. and Raman. 3. Brillouin and Rayleigh Scattering. 4 NMR—ESR

III. Physical Measurements. 1. X-ray and Neutron Diffraction. 2. Thermodynamic Measurements. 3. Electrical Measurements. 4. Materials (Physics and Chemistry). Titles of papers will be accepted until June 30, 1975. Abstracts must be submitted by September 15,

1975. Further information may be obtained from any member of the Organizing Conintittee: Dr. M. Gomez, Physics Department, University of Puerto Rico, Rio Piedras, Puerto Rico. Dr. J.A.
