The third international school and conference on spintronics and quantum information technology (Spintech III) will be held at Awaji Yumebutai International Conference Center ( http://www.yumebutai.org ) at the Awaji Island, Hyogo, in Japan, from August 1 to 5 in 2005.
Spintech III aims at highlighting the latest developments in using spin-dependent phenomena in nanoelectronics. It also intends to provide an overview of the current understanding of the physics of spin related phenomena in (magnetic) semiconductor and hybrid magnetic / semiconductor structures and of the prospect of exploitation of spin-dependent phenomena in future nano-(opto-)electronic and (quantum) computing and communication applications. The Spintech III School mainly for graduate students will be held in the first half of the period followed by the Spintech III Conference in the second half. Student participation is strongly encouraged.
Spintech III School days (August 1-3, 2005)
(1) Students, post-doc, and newcomers to the field are invited to attend the school sessions on August 1-3, prior to the opening of the Spintech III Conference.
(2) The organizers plan to invite the most experienced scientists in the field to present tutorial lectures, which will give an introduction to the role of spins in semiconductors and to the most commonly applied experimental and theoretical methods in the field. Each lecture is 60 min. talk (including 20 min. discussion).
(3) After the tutorial sessions in the evening on Monday, August 1, an informal well-come reception will take place to give the attendee a chance to socialize with one another.
Spintech III Conference days (August 3-5, 2005)
(1) Spintronics researchers are invited to attend the Spintech III Conference sessions on August 3-5.

Spintech III Organizing Committee applied to Asian Science Seminar (JSPS: Japan Society for the Promotion of Science) on Semiconductor Nano-Spintronics and Defect Control (SNSDC-2005) to support the Asian Students and Asian Young Researcher to participate to the School and Seminar in Spintech III and ICDS-23. Unfortunately, this application is rejected by JSPS (25 Mar. 2005) and at present we have no offer of financial support from JSPS.
DARPA will prepare the financial support for US Students and US Young Researchers to attend Spintech III. US Students and US Young Researchers who need the financial support to attend Spintech III should contact to: http://www.csqc.ucsb.edu/spintech/

The 23rd International Conference on Defects in Semiconductors (ICDS-23), from July 24 to July 29, 2005, ( http://www.sanken.osaka-u.ac.jp/icds23/ ), will be held at the same place of Spintech III. ICDS-23 will continue to place its main focus on detailed understanding of electrical, optical, and structural properties of defects and impurities in semiconductors through novel experimental and theoretical methods. Such in depth understanding is crucially important for overcoming a variety of engineering problems associated with device processing and operation, particularly, for the realization of next generation nano-electronics, optics, and spintronics.
