Conference (Collaborative Research): First International Conference on Spontaneous Coherence in Excitonic Systems; Champion, Pennsylvania; May 25-28, 2004

该奖项提供了部分支持，一个国际会议致力于自发的激子系统中的一致性现象。 近年来，作为固体光学、半导体纳米结构和凝聚态理论中的一个基本研究课题，这一课题得到了越来越多的关注。 这次为期四天的会议将于2004年5月25日至28日在宾夕法尼亚州冠军的七泉山度假村举行，题为“第一届激子系统自发相干国际会议”（ICSCE）。 此次会议将使该领域的专家能够在物理、光学科学和工程的多个子领域建立网络。 来自NSF的支持将为年轻的研究人员和研究生提供一个参与的机会，参加讲座，展示海报，并与该领域的一些领先的国际专家讨论他们的研究。

This award provides partial support an international conference dedicated to the phenomenon of spontaneous coherence in excitonic systems. This topic has gained increasing attention in recent years, as a subject of fundamental interest in solid-state optics, semiconductor nanostructures, and condensed matter theory. The four-day conference, entitled the First International Conference on Spontaneous Coherence in Excitonic Systems (ICSCE), will be held at the Seven Springs Mountain Resort in Champion, Pennsylvania, from May 25-28, 2004. This conference will allow experts in this field to network across several subfields of physics, optical science, and engineering. Support from the NSF will provide an opportunity for young researchers and graduate students to participate by attending lectures, presenting posters, and discussing their research with some of the leading international experts in the field.
