For the 2012 conference, we introduced a new session titled Physics in Semiconductors, comprising presentations on spintronics, quantum information, polaritons and other physical effects for which semiconductors provide an ideal environment for investigation of these phenomena. We also welcomed back members of the UK Nitrides Consortium, with a dedicated symposium on nitride semiconductors.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We received over 150 abstracts for the conference and the programme included 4 plenary lectures, 7 invited talks, 76 contributed talks and 67 poster presentations. In total, research groups from 25 UK universities or companies and institutions from a further 28 countries were represented. We are pleased to announce that highlight presentations from the conference will be included in a forthcoming special issue of the IOP\u2019s Journal of Physics D: Applied Physics.<\/p>\n<p
