Recently, there is a rapid and significant progress in the field of UV and higher energy photonics (UV to EUV) due to the availability of new UV and high energy light sources. Nano-materials such as nucleotides and proteins known as the essential biomolecules in living cells and semiconducting or plasmonic materials used to in advanced nano-devices are analyzed and detected, imaged, and/or manipulated with use of UV and higher energy photons. Starting from the material growth related aspects, this conference includes theories and novel concepts on UV and higher energy photonics. It includes experiments and developments of methods and instruments, which are used as devices and applications to catalysis, nano-lithography, nano-imaging, disinfection, and analytical sensing in nano-photonics, bio-medical photonics, materials sciences, and green and environmental sciences.
