On June 19-20, 2003, a leading group of engineers and scientists from academia and industry will meet at the National Science Foundation for a visionary workshop on future directions in catalysis research. Catalysts and the multitude of products prepared through their use constitute a major portion of the US GNP. Undoubtedly, catalysts are the most successful application of nanotechnology in the modern economy. The ability to design and control catalyst structure at the nanometer scale is directly related to key catalytic properties, such as activity, selectivity, and stability. Recent advances now promise to revolutionize catalysis research: Synthetic techniques can now control assembly at the nano-scale, analytical methodologies can identify and probe structure to verify synthesis methodology, and predictive capabilities can provide guiding principles for structure/property relationships. Unprecedented control of the preparation of new nano-scale catalysts is on the near horizon. This workshop will also address the role of catalysis within the framework of national inititatives in nanoscience and engineering. NSF's Mihail Roco, chair of the U.S. National Science and Technology Council's Subcommittee on Nanoscale Science, Engineering, and Technology (NSET), will present an overview of U.S. government efforts in nanotechnology research and development. Professor Mark E. Davis of the California Institute of Technology, who received the Alan T. Waterman Award, from the National Science Foundation in 1990, will present the charge and goals for the workshop. Plenary talks will be given on seven key topics explored by the workshop:- Professor Don Tilley, University of California-Berkeley - Molecular Precursors to Catalytic Materials- Professor Chad Mirkin, Northwestern University - Perspective on the Relationationship to Other Nanoscience and Engineering Programs- Dr. E. Mark Davis, ExxonMobil - Perspective on Catalysis and Assembly at the Nanoscale by Industry - Professor Robert Schlogl, Fritz Haber Institute, Berlin - Perspective On Heterogeneous Catalysis at the Nanoscale from Europe - Professor Henry Foley, Pennsylvania State University - Use of Catalysis for Nanoscale Materials Fabrication- Professor Raul Lobo, University of Delaware - Characterization Methods for Nanoscale Catalysts- Professor Matt Neurock, University of Virginia - Computation and Modeling for Nanoscale CatalysisWorkshop participants will discuss these topics and develop a visionary plan for future NSF research in this aspect of catalysis. The results of the workshop will be released in a report following the meeting, and a web site will be developed.

2003年6月19日至20日，来自学术界和工业界的工程师和科学家领导小组将在美国国家科学基金会举行关于催化研究未来方向的前瞻性研讨会。 催化剂和通过使用它们制备的大量产品构成了美国GNP的主要部分。毫无疑问，催化剂是纳米技术在现代经济中最成功的应用。在纳米尺度上设计和控制催化剂结构的能力直接关系到关键的催化性能，如活性、选择性和稳定性。最近的进展现在有望彻底改变催化研究：合成技术现在可以在纳米尺度上控制组装，分析方法可以识别和探测结构以验证合成方法，预测能力可以为结构/性能关系提供指导原则。 前所未有的控制制备新的纳米级催化剂是在不久的地平线上。 该研讨会还将讨论在纳米科学和工程国家倡议框架内催化的作用。 美国国家科学基金会的Mihail Roco是美国国家科学技术理事会纳米科学、工程和技术小组委员会（NSET）的主席，他将概述美国政府在纳米技术研究和开发方面的努力。 Mark E.来自加州理工学院的戴维斯，他收到了艾伦T。1990年美国国家科学基金会授予的沃特曼奖将为研讨会提出任务和目标。 全体会议将讨论研讨会探讨的七个关键主题：-教授唐蒂利，加州大学伯克利分校-分子前体催化材料-教授乍得米尔金，西北大学-对其他纳米科学和工程计划的关系的观点-博士E。Mark Davis，ExxonMobil -工业界对纳米尺度催化和组装的看法-柏林弗里茨哈伯研究所Robert Schlogl教授-欧洲纳米尺度多相催化的看法-宾夕法尼亚州立大学亨利福利教授-纳米尺度材料制造中催化的应用-特拉华州大学Raul Lobo教授-纳米尺度催化剂的表征方法-Matt Neurock教授，弗吉尼亚大学-纳米催化的计算和建模研讨会的参与者将讨论这些主题，并为未来NSF在催化这方面的研究制定一个有远见的计划。 研讨会的结果将在会后的一份报告中公布，并将建立一个网站。
