Book excerpt: The 8th Conference on Optics of Confined Systems (OECS-8), 15-17 September 2003 in Lecce, Italy, continued a series of traditional world wide meetings which regroup scientists active in the area of exciton spectroscopy and physics, confined systems, and nanostructures. The conference addressed basic and applied physics aspects, material issues, and device concepts in a multidisciplinary community. State-of-the-art results in the field of excitons physics in inorganic as well as organic confined systems were discussed and compared. physica status solidi (c) - conferences and critical reviews publishes conference proceedings, ranging from large international meetings to specialized topical workshops as well as collections of topical reviews on various areas of current solid state physics research.
