The 40th North American Conference on Molecular Beam Epitaxy (NAMBE 2027) is a prominent international forum for reporting scientific and technological developments in Molecular Beam Epitaxy research. It will take place August 2-5, 2027, at the Renaissance Asheville Downtown Hotel, Asheville, NC

The conference showcases important results from fundamental materials and device research, through technological applications, and into high-volume and low-cost production. NAMBE features the presentations of the Art Gossard MBE Innovator Award, the NAMBE Young Investigator Award, the Best Student Paper awards, and the Jim Harris MBE Scientific Discovery Award.

In addition to a diverse technical program, vendors will exhibit the latest equipment available for material growth and characterization. The exhibit will surround the coffee breaks and poster presentations, providing many opportunities for discussions between attendees and vendors. There will also be a job board.

During the weekend preceding the conference, we offer an exclusive workshop titled “Epitaxy in the Age of AI” which will be held July 31-August 1, 2027. The Workshop will host invited speakers across the range of materials systems and will focus on how AI approaches can impact their growth by MBE. There will be an additional poster session which is accepting abstracts through June 30, 2027.
