ACS Symposium on Metal Oxides, ACS 2002 Fall Meeting; Boston, MA; August 18-22, 2002

美国化学学会金属氧化物研讨会将于2002年8月18日至22日在马萨诸塞州波士顿举行。会议的目标是促进广泛的研究人员之间的多学科互动和信息交流，包括在金属氧化物固态化学广泛领域的优先领域工作的CAREER资助者，博士后学者和研究生。NSF的资金将用于支持受邀演讲者、初级教师、博士后研究员和研究生参加研讨会的费用。固态化学社区继续通过设计，合成和应用新材料对推进社会至关重要的技术领域产生直接影响。实例包括用于氧化物铁电体的金属氧化物材料、用于电子和电光器件的薄膜、氧化物超导体和具有负热膨胀系数的氧化物。由于这些技术领域对工业具有非常高的优先级，因此在这些涉及固态化学的多学科领域接受教育和培训的学生在就业市场上竞争非常激烈，并继续以许多重要的方式为全球经济做出贡献。

The American Chemical Society METAL OXIDES Symposium on will be held in Boston, MA, August 18-22, 2002. The goal of the conference is to facilitate multidisciplinary interactions and information exchange within a broad spectrum of researchers, to include CAREER grantees, post doctoral scholars and graduate students working in priority areas of the broad field of metal oxide solid-state chemistry. The NSF funds will be used to support the costs for invited speakers, junior faculty, postdoctoral fellows and graduate students to participate in the symposium. The Solid State Chemistry community continues to have direct impact on technological areas that are crucial to advancing society through the design, synthesis and application new materials. Examples include metal oxide materials for oxide ferroelectrics, thin films for electronics and electrooptic devices, oxide superconductors and oxides with negative thermal expansion coefficients. Since these technical areas are of very high priority to industry, students educated and trained in these multidisciplinary areas involving solid-state chemistry compete very well in the job market and go on to contribute in many significant ways to the global economy.
