Pan American Advanced Studies Institute: Physics at the Nanometer Scale; San Carlos Bariloche, Argentina, June, 2003.

[0221194]这个由美国国家科学基金会（NSF）和美国能源部（DOE）联合支持的关于纳米尺度物理学的泛美高级研究所（PASI）奖，将邀请来自西半球的研究生和博士后参加为期10天的强化课程，学习当前非常感兴趣的纳米技术领域。PASI由亚利桑那州立大学的Fernando Ponce博士和阿根廷巴里洛切原子中心的Carlos Balseiro博士组织，将于2003年6月1日至12日在巴里洛切原子中心举行，将以纳米磁学、纳米线和纳米管、纳米粒子、纳米电子学和纳米器件传输、纳米光电子学、纳米制造和纳米表征以及生物纳米技术为特色。此外，PASI将包括由初级和其他参与者介绍研究和结果的海报会议，以促进具体内容的互动。这种密集的交流将促进未来与下一代科学家的合作研究。预期的结果是一本书，过程的录像带，和一个至少有讲座摘要的网站。

0221194PonceThis Pan-American Advanced Studies Institutes (PASI) award on physics at the nanometer scale, jointly supported by the NSF and the Department of Energy (DOE), will engage graduate and post-doctoral students from the hemisphere in an intensive course of 10 days duration in an area of nanotechnology of much current interest. Organized by Dr. Fernando Ponce of the Arizona State University and Dr. Carlos Balseiro of the Centro Atomico de Bariloche, Argentina, the PASI will be held at the Centro Atomico de Bariloche, June 1-12, 2003 and will feature tutorials and lectures on nanomagnetism, nanowires and nanotubes, nanoparticles, nanoelectronics and transport through nanodevices, nano-optoelectronics, nano-fabrication and nano-characterization, and bio-nanotechnology. In addition, the PASI will include poster sessions for the presentation of research studies and results by junior and other participants, in order to foster content-specific interactions. This intensive exchange should promote future collaborative research with the next generation of scientists. Expected outcomes are a book, videotapes of the proceedings, and a web site with at least summaries of the lectures.
