Many macroscopic properties of materials are determined primarily
by inhomogeneous structures and textures. These intermediate-scale
structures often arise from competing interactions operating on
different length scales within the material. Our understanding of
such phenomena has increased substantially with the identification
and theoretical description of solid-state materials with
incommensurate and long-period modulated phases, such as
ferroelectrics, charge-density-wave compounds, epitaxial layers and
polytypes. Experimental diagnosis of inhomogeneous ground states
and metastable phases has advanced so far that these are now
well-accepted phenomena. These proceedings bring together the work
of physicists and materials scientists to review developments in
this area and to examine possible future directions, such as how
the microscopic understanding emerging in bench-top solid-state
systems can be applied in materials science.
