Introduction

International Conference of Young Researchers on Advanced

Materials (IUMRS-ICYRAM) is a newly conference sponsored by

International Union of Materials Research Societies (IUMRS).

The first conference (ICYRAM2012) was organized by Materials

Research Society of Singapore. Chinese Materials Research

Society(C-MRS) will host the second conference of IUMRS-

ICYRAM2014.

The conference provides the opportunity for young researchers

(under the age of 40) from the world to exchange their recent

achievements on the research and development of materials

science and engineering.
