National Science
Introduction:
The 3rd
ICNX conference will take place from 27th of June to 1st of July,
2011 at
The main topics for the conference:
- Membranes
and interfaces of soft condensed matter
-
Magnetism
- Time
resolved in-situ studies and dynamics
-
Nanostructured or thin film materials
-
Coherent X-ray scattering and imaging
-
Instrumentation and theory developments
-
Industrial applications using scattering method
- X-ray
and neutron complementary crystallography
-
Opportunities from new facilities
Objects:
The objective of this conference is to bring together
scientists who develop neutron and X-ray scattering instruments and methods,
perform characterization experiments and data analysis on soft and solid state
matters. The complementary applications of using X-ray and neutron beam give a
better view of structures of condensed matters. We hope to attract more international
users to exchange more brilliant ideas for the new scattering facilities during
this meeting.
Conference
Venue
The conference will be held at the Department of
Engineering and System Science of National Tsing Hua University (NTHU), Hsinchu,

Transportation information:
Riding a taxi is the easiest way from Taoyuan
International airport (CKS airport) to NTHU/Hsinchu. It takes 40 min and cost
about NT$1500 for one way. For most travelers, first, take the bus (fare NT$30,
20 min) to the nearby Taiwan High Speed Railway (THSR) Station (Taoyuan). Then,
take the south bound train to Hsinchu station (one stop, ticket fare about
NT$130, 15 min) and finally take the free shuttle bus to the main gate of NTHU
(20 min) or downtown Hsinchu city. In total, it takes about 90 min. including
the waiting time.

Hotel information
There are many hotels for accommodations in Hsinchu
area. The price ranges from NT$1200-NT$6000 typically. A list of discounted
hotel will be announced later. Shuttle bus will arranged for the foreign
participants from/to NTHU and Hotel in Hsinchu downtown each day during the conference.
If you miss the shuttle bus, take bus line number 1 (fare NT$15, pay cash on
the bus, no change) to the bus stop at the main gate of NTHU. The taxi is also
available everywhere all the time, it costs about NT$200 from Hsinchu downtown
to NTHU or from THSR Hsinchu station to NTHU.
