Chemistry plays a central role in the development and characterization of new inorganic materials. From developing synthetic techniques that make new families of materials available to elucidating fundamental correlations between the crystal structure and functionality, solid state chemistry unifies researchers across several disciplines. This symposium will explore these diverse fields with a special focus on how the underlying chemistry of new materials dictates their physical properties. These sessions will provide a forum where experimental and computational materials chemists can discuss the current state-of-the-art in materials design and characterization. Contributions that use detailed structure and property characterization are encouraged, particularly when supported by electronic structure calculations.
