在AVS Nellie Yeoh whitten奖30周年之际，这个特别的主题集突出了在材料，界面和加工领域工作的杰出女性科学家。杨紫琼奖于1989年由Timothy J. Whetten、杨紫琼的朋友和家人以及AVS共同创立。该奖项旨在表彰女性研究生在AVS感兴趣的技术和科学方面的卓越表现。通过这个特别的收藏，我们希望能激励年轻的研究者，鼓励下一代女性和少数族裔科学家和工程师。每篇论文都由女性科学家领导，并展示了她们在等离子体技术、催化、能量储存和环境科学等领域的影响。此外，这些妇女对更广泛的社区产生重大影响。例如，贾尼·英格拉姆通过研究环境中的铀和砷污染以及它们如何影响供水来帮助纳瓦霍民族。
On the occasion of the 30th year of the AVS Nellie Yeoh Whetten Award, this special topic collection highlights outstanding leading women scientists working in the areas of materials, interfaces, and processing. The Nellie Yeoh Whetten Award was established in 1989 by Timothy J. Whetten, friends and family of Nellie Yeoh Whetten, and the AVS. The Award recognizes the excellence of women graduate students in the technologies and sciences of interest to AVS.Through this special collection we hope to inspire young investigators and encourage the next generation of women and under-represented minority scientists and engineers. Each paper is led by women scientists and demonstrates their impact in fields including plasma technologies, catalysis, energy storage, and environmental science. In addition, these women have a significant impact on their wider communities. For example, Jani Ingram 1 assists the Navajo nation by studying environmental uranium and arsenic contamination and how they affect the water supplies.
