Workshop on Semiconductor Nano-Spintronics: Spin-Hall Effect and Related Issues

OISE-0527227 Sinova，Jairo（德克萨斯农工研究基金会），半导体纳米自旋电子学：自旋霍尔效应及相关问题研讨会摘要德克萨斯农工研究基金会的Jairo Sinova博士的提案要求为将于2005年8月在韩国科学技术大学浦项亚太理论物理中心（APCTP）举行的半导体纳米自旋电子学：自旋霍尔效应及相关问题研讨会提供资金。要求国家科学基金会提供资金，支持七名初级研究人员和三名高级研究人员参加讲习班。研究人员包括来自代表性不足的种族，民族或性别群体的几位科学家。该研讨会由来自美国的一组合作者组织，韩国、日本及香港，将介绍自旋霍尔效应的概况，讨论理论研究的最新研究进展，并解决几个相关的争议。会议还将使西方科学家了解亚洲研究人员在自旋电子学领域进行的广泛和值得注意的研究，以启动和巩固两个科学界之间的直接合作。

OISE-0527227Sinova, Jairo (Texas A&M Research Foundation), Workshop on Semiconductor Nano-Spintronics: Spin-Hall Effect and Related Issues ABSTRACTThe proposal by Dr. Jairo Sinova of Texas A&M Research Foundation requests funds for a Workshop on Semiconductor Nano-Spintronics: Spin-Hall Effect and Related Issues, to be held at the Asian Pacific Center for Theoretical Physics (APCTP) in Pohang University of Science and Technology in Korea in August 2005. NSF funds are requested to support participation in the workshop by seven junior researchers and three senior researchers. The researchers include several scientists from underrepresented racial, ethnic or gender groups. The workshop, organized by a team of collaborators from the U.S., Korea, Japan and Hong Kong, will provide an overview of the spin-Hall effect, discuss theoretical studies recent research progress and address several related controversies. The meeting will also expose Western scientists to the extensive and noteworthy research being carried out by Asian researchers in the spintronics field in order to initiate and solidify direct collaborations between the two scientific communities.
