Open: October, 2023

Deadline: December 30th, 2023

Abstract guidelines

The Scientific Committee invites you to submit your latest and best results as an abstract for CSSC-12. All abstract authors have the option to apply for a poster or oral presentation. The abstract must be a single page document with the following format:

Paper size: A4.

Margins: 3.0 cm margins on all sides.

Font style: “Times New Roman” or” Times” is recommended.

Font size: 12 pt bold font is for the title and 10 pt normal font is for authors’ name(s), affiliation(s), e-mail address, main text, and references.

File format: pdf (max size 10 MB).

The template is available here.

Name your file as the Last name of the first author.pdf .

It is also offered the opportunity to publish in one of our partner journals.  For publication, during abstract submission, authors should specify the journal of their preference: Solar Energy Materials & Solar Cells or Micro and Nanostructures. In this case, in addition to the single-page abstract, an extended one of three pages should be also submitted.

Presentations guidelines

Duration of talks: 15 minutes (+ 5 min. to Q&A). Presentations have to be sent before the event as Powerpoint or PDF files to: cssc12@zju.edu.cn

Posters should be in A0 format.
