BLOCK TRAVEL:INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ORGANIC NONLINEAR OPTICS I. TO BE HELD IN VAL THORENS, FRANCE, JANUARY, 9 - 13, 1994.

9305728 Kuzyk该提案为有机非线性光学主题的国际会议寻求部分资金，会议总部在法国Val Thorens。美国国家科学基金会（NSF）为美国特邀演讲者和博士生的旅行提供资金支持。会议的目的是汇集顶尖的研究人员——他们的专业知识跨越材料设计、材料表征、设备制造和集成设备架构——在一个小山城的亲密环境中讨论和评估该领域的进展。这次即将召开的会议是由1992年夏天在华盛顿普尔曼举行的一个由nsf支持的小型会议推动的。该领域的工作人员认为缺少这样一个小型论坛，因此应他们的要求，计划今后每隔18至24个月举行一系列这样的会议，并将在该领域活跃的国家举行。＊＊＊

9305728 Kuzyk This proposal seeks partial funding for an international conference on the topic of organic nonlinear optics with meeting headquarters at Val Thorens, France. NSF funds are requested for travel support of U.S. invited speakers and Ph.D. students. The purpose of the meeting is to bring together top researchers-whose expertise spans material design, material characterization, device fabrication, and integrated device architectures-to the intimate setting of a small mountain town to discuss and assess progress in the field. This upcoming conference is motivated by a small NSF-supported conference that was held in Pullman, Washington in the summer of 1992. At the demand of workers in the field who feel that such a small forum is lacking, a future series of such conferences are planned in 18 to 24 month intervals and will be held in those countries that are active in this field. ***
