DESCRIPTION:Prof. Maciej Ogorzalek\, The Hong Kong Polytechnic University\
 nIn the last decade fractals from an  area of interest restricted for theo
 reticians and artistically-oriented members of academic communities came t
 o many spectacular applications.\nThis lecture presents an overview of bas
 ic geometric concepts of fractal geometry and space-filling-curves.\nFurth
 er a number of examples of very advanced applications in microelectronic c
 ircuits will be presented. \nThese applications show enhancement of proper
 ties of microelectronic circuits through construction of new geometric str
 uctures e.g. in biosensors\, fractal electrodes\, fractal antenna\, solar 
 cells and super-capacitors\, etc.\nProperties of geometric structures exhi
 biting unusual geometries indicate their applicability in ever growing min
 iaturization\n(nano-structures) and frequency of operation (TeraHz range).
  \nFractal theories apart from bringing ideas to non-conventional geometri
 c constructions provide also useful tools for analysis of micro-system ope
 ration in the extreme conditions in the nano and tera range when standard 
 macroscopic physical laws and circuit-theoretic approaches (such as eg. th
 e Ohm's law) are not applicable any more. \nProf. Ogorzalek's homepage
