NANOHARD 2009 is the forth forum organized for knowledge dissemination in the field of nanostructured materials, thin films, hard and superhard coatings for advanced applications. Organization of NANOHARD scientific events started in 2005 at the support of the European Commission, Project INCO-CT-2005-016805 RTCNANOHARD. Two international workshops and one conference have been carried out since 2005.

The NANOHARD 2009 site will be the Rest Home (in Bulgarian: Pochivna baza) of BULBANK – UniCredit Group in Sozopol, 2 Lazouren Bryag Str. It is situated at the coast with a nice view toward the Black Sea and is in five minutes walking from the centre of Sozopol.
The Rest Home of BULBANK – UniCredit Group is a complex of a hotel part and area for business activities. The presentations will be delivered in the Conference Hall equipped with all multimedia properties. The participants may use internet, copy and facsimile services as well.
The conference will include Oral and Poster Sessions.
Invited talks: 45 min for presentation + 5 min for discussion
Contributed talks: 15 min for presentation + 5 min for discussion
Authors can use multimedia equipment for a computerized presentation (PowerPoint presentation on a CD or portable memory). Authors must check their presentation with the chairman and the technician at least 20 min. before the beginning of the session. All authors planning to give a computerized presentation must bring a backup copy in case of unforeseen compatibility or set-up difficulties with the LCD equipment.
The authors delivering an oral presentation should send an electron version in PowerPoint 2003 file format until May 4th 2009 to the conference address:
nanohard@nanohardbg.eu
Posters:
The sizes of posters should be: width - 70 cm and height - 90 cm
All necessary materials for posters hanging will be available before the session.
