Welcome to the 2021 ISAF-ISIF-PFM Joint Conference!
The conference will be held as a Virtual Conference from May 16-21, 2021
Located just a few km south of the Sydney CBD and close to some of Australia’s most iconic beaches, this international conference aims to bring together leaders from academia, national laboratories and industrial research and development sectors.
The conference will cover the most recent advancements in the science and technology of ferroelectrics, electroceramics, thin films, dielectric materials and their applications.
Keynote Speakers
Mark S. Humayun, MD, PhD
Beatriz Noheda
