This grant is for travel support for scientists from the former Soviet Union to attend the Fifth International Vacuum Microelectronics Conference, in Vienna, Austria, July 13-15, 1992. The Vacuum Microelectronics Conference provides a focused scientific forum to address research topics in this relatively new and emerging technological field. The scope of the conference includes fundamental theoretical and experimental physics in such topics as non-equilibrium electron transport in 3-D nanostructures, quantum mechanical tunneling through thin surface layers of insulators, metals, and semiconductors, and theoretical descriptions of surface tunneling. It also includes the physics of field emission from layered materials and fabrication and processing physics of nanostructures, and the physics and chemistry of micromachining. For a number of years, scientists from the former Soviet Union have been leaders in this field, and their participation is considered to be central to the success of the conference, considering their contributions to the field with respect to creativity, technical merit, and scientific significance. However, the recent events in the FSU have left their institutes without resources to provide travel to the conference even for their leading researchers. The request to NSF to provide travel funds to bring many of these leading scientists to the meeting is highly appropriate at this time, given the turbulent economic situation in the FSU and our desire to foster closer contact with quality scientific groups in these countries. The funds requested of NSF will be dispersed by the International Committee based on a priority listing of up to 20 scientists attached to this proposal.

该补助金用于为来自以下国家的科学家提供旅行支持： 前苏联参加第五届 国际真空微电子会议， 1992年7月13日至15日在奥地利维也纳举行。 真空 微电子会议提供了一个重点 科学论坛，以解决这方面的研究课题， 相对新兴的技术领域。 会议的范围包括基本的 理论和实验物理在这些主题 作为三维非平衡电子输运 纳米结构，量子力学隧穿 穿过绝缘体，金属， 和半导体，以及理论描述， 地表隧道 它还包括物理 来自层状材料的场发射， 制造和加工物理学 纳米结构的物理和化学 微机械加工 多年来，科学家 来自前苏联的领导人 他们的参与被认为是 会议取得成功的关键，考虑到 他们对实地工作的贡献， 创造力、技术价值和科学 意义 然而，最近发生的事件 FSU使他们的研究所没有资源， 为与会者提供差旅费， 领先的研究人员。 要求NSF提供 旅游基金，使许多这些领先的 科学家出席会议是非常合适的， 这一次，鉴于动荡的经济形势， 前苏联和我们希望促进更密切的接触 与这些国家的高质量科学团体合作。 NSF要求的资金将通过以下方式分散 国际委员会根据优先事项 名单上有多达20名科学家 提议
