Preface

On behalf of the organizing committee, it is my greatest pleasure to welcome all participants of the 13th RIES-Hokudai International Symposium "律[ritsu]" joined with the 1st international Symposium of Nano-Macro Materials, Devices, and System Research Alliance Project. This symposium is organized by Research Institute for Electronic Science (RIES) of Hokkaido University (Hokudai) and co-organized by Nano-Macro Materials, Devices, and System Research Alliance, which is composed of five national university-attached institutes including RIES, Institute of Multidisciplinary Research for Advanced Materials (Tohoku Univ.), Chemical Resources Laboratory (Tokyo Inst. Tech.), Institute of Scientific and Industrial Research(Osaka Univ.), and Institute for Materials Chemistry and Engineering (Kyushu Univ.).

RIES has organized a series of international symposium since 1999, and since 2001, the objective of each symposium has been symbolized by a single "Kanji" (Chinese Character). "律[ritsu]" was selected as this year's Kanji. In Japanese, the character "律" generally denotes "rule", "rhythm", "melody" and "autonomy". In the world, there are a variety of "rules" such as commands for ordering actions, laws of things, or disciplines for Buddhist monks. "Melody" means music sounds themselves or systems that organize relative relations of tone pitches. "Autonomy" is a concept found in moral, political, and bioethical philosophy. One of the best known philosophical theories of "Autonomy" was developed by Kant. "Autonomy" is also used to refer to the self-government of the people. In the field of science, "律" evokes some interesting research topics such as (1) design and creation of ordered/disordered materials, (2) search and understanding of physical laws, (3) selectivity for substrates and reactions, and (4) biological autonomy. These are strongly related to not only a variety of research fields including Optics, Molecule/Material, Life, and Mathematics, but also their boundary fields. With such an image of "律" in mind, I would like to implement interdisciplinary discussions toward a development of new science under this unified theme.

In this symposium, fifteen invited speakers will present their latest research associated with this year's topic "律" along with poster presenters from RIES and Nano-Macro Materials, Devices, and System Research Alliance. I hope that each participant has active interdisciplinary discussions and relationships during this symposium and starts collaborative research in the near future. Finally, I would like to express my sincere thanks to all the invited speakers and partcipants for joining this symposium.
