2002 Electronic Processes in Organic Materials Conference; Newport, RI; July 21-26, 2002

关于有机材料电子过程的戈登研究会议（EPOM）将于2002年7月21日至26日在罗德岛州纽波特的萨尔维里贾纳大学举行。会议的主要目标是提供一个论坛，介绍EPOM新的和令人兴奋的实验和理论结果，并汇集来自不同学科的研究人员，使他们能够分享他们的实验和理论方法，解决与许多不同类型的复杂有机材料中的电子和电子物理过程相关的问题。科学计划是多方面的，也将有助于教育年轻和建立科学家在他们不那么熟悉的领域。主题包括基础科学和设备应用，例如，有机超导体、场效应晶体管、激光器、导线、发光二极管、半导体、低维系统中的电子结构和动力学、人工和光合系统中的光捕获和电子转移、有机-无机异质结构、单聚合物和生物分子光谱学以及纳米结构电子学。会议将包括9个正式会议，共28个口头报告，和两个下午的海报会议。特邀演讲者和讨论领导人是根据他们的相关专业知识和最近的成就选择的，同时强调性别平衡，少数民族代表和年轻调查人员的参与。沿着评估该领域和未来方向的机会，预计将在大学、研究机构和行业之间建立新的联系。%对有机材料中电子过程和相关器件问题的进展和现状的评估沿着对当前最重要发展的评估，将对理解和提高电子/光子材料在计算、数据处理和通信中的利用具有重要价值。本次会议由数学和物理科学理事会内的化学和材料研究部门共同支持。 ***

A Gordon Research Conference on Electronic Processes in Organic Materials (EPOM) will be held July 21-26, 2002 at Salve Regina University, Newport, RI. The main goals of the conference are to provide a forum for the presentation of new and exciting experimental and theoretical results on EPOM and to bring together investigators from diverse disciplines so that they can share their experimental and theoretical approaches in solving problems related to electronic and photophysical processes in complex organic materials of many different types. The scientific program is multi-faceted and will also serve to educate young and established scientists in areas they are not so familiar with. Topics include fundamental science and device applications, e.g., organic superconductors, field-effect transistors, lasers, conducting wires, light emitting diodes, semiconductors, electronic structure and dynamics in low-dimensional systems, light harvesting and electron transfer in artificial and photosynthetic systems, organic-inorganic heterostructures, single polymer and biomolecular spectroscopy and, nano-architectronics. The conference will consist of nine formal sessions with a total of 28 oral presentations, and two afternoon poster sessions. Invited speakers and discussion leaders were selected on the basis of their relevant expertise and recent achievements while emphasizing a program with gender balance, minority representation, and participation of young investigators. Along with the opportunity to assess the field and future directions, it is expected that new ties will be established between universities, research institutions, and industry.%%%An evaluation of the progress and status of Electronic Processes in Organic Materials and related device issues along with current assessments of the most important developments will be of significant value to the understanding and enhanced utilization of electronic/photonic materials in computing, data processing, and communications. This conference is co-supported by the Chemistry and Materials Research Divisions within the Mathematical and Physical Sciences Directorate. ***
