6th International Conference on MXenes (6th International Conference on MXenes)

Since its discovery in 2011, two-dimensional transition metal carbides and nitrides (MXene) have emerged as a frontier research focus in fields such as energy, catalysis, biomedicine, and electronic information, thanks to their excellent conductivity and tunable surface chemistry. 2026 marks the 15th anniversary of the discovery of MXene materials. To commemorate this milestone and further promote international exchanges and cooperation in this field, the 6th International Conference on MXenes is scheduled to be held in Chengdu, Sichuan from August 3 to 5, 2026. This conference is co-hosted by the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China (UESTC) and Sichuan University. Academician Yury Gogotsi from Drexel University (USA), Professor Xiao Xu from UESTC, Professor Lin Zifeng and Professor Zhang Chuanfang from Sichuan University jointly serve as the conference chairs. Centering on the theme of "MXene and Its Frontier Interdisciplinarity", the conference will conduct in-depth discussions on core topics including artificial intelligence and theoretical calculation, synthesis and characterization, energy storage, biomedicine, sensing and optoelectronic applications. It aims to showcase the latest achievements, promote interdisciplinary integration, cultivate young talents, and jointly advance the innovative development of MXene science and technology.
