The 9th Asian-European International Conference on Plasma Surface Engineering (AEPSE2013) will be held in August 25 (Sunday) to 30 (Friday), 2013, in Jeju, Korea which is an exotic UNESCO world heritage island in parallel with the 35th Dry Process Symposium in August 29 (Thursday) to 30 (Friday), 2013. The AEPSE2013 is organized by Asian Joint Committee for Applied Plasma Science and Engineering (AJC-APSE) in close collaboration with European Joint Committee for Plasma and Ion Surface Engineering (EJC-PISE).

The AEPSE conference has been attracting growing interest as one of the global nominated open forums for contributing scientific and industrial progress in applied plasma science and engineering fields in Asia and Europe as well as other countries since the first conference has been commenced in 1997 in Seoul, Korea. Especially, leading the world of industries such as semiconductor, digital devices including display and touch panel, automobile industry etc. in East Asia, plasma surface engineering needs a new paradigm of scientific and technological innovation for further rapid advanced for the leading industries in advanced materials and processes and expansion of new technologies as well as market.
We cordially invite you to AEPSE2013 in Jeju, Korea for open discussion and collaboration opportunities on advance and innovation on scientific and technological topics related to plasma surface engineering and emerging core technologies and industries as well as new prospective market.
