THE GORDON RESEARCH CONFERENCE ON PLASMA PROCESSING SCIENCE (GRC-PPS-2006):

提案编号：cts -0613727首席研究员：Alexander fridman机构：Drexel大学提案标题：戈登等离子体处理科学研究会议（GRC-PPS-2006）下一届2006年戈登等离子体处理科学研究会议（GRC-PPS）将于2006年7月16日至21日在马萨诸塞州南哈德利的Mount Holyoke学院举行。GRC-PPS将汇集等离子体处理科学领域的主要权威人士，以及初级研究人员，工程师和科学家，就该领域的最新进展和未来方向交换信息和想法。戈登等离子体加工科学研究会议（GRCPPS）是一个两年一次的学术会议，重点关注等离子体的基础科学和先进应用，特别是在材料修改或制造的工业过程中。GRC- pps及其前身GRC等离子体化学的一个持续特征是学生和博士后研究员的积极参与。GRC-PPS认为其章程不仅是一个交流等离子体处理科学最新技术的论坛，而且也是一个为新进入该领域的人提供指导的环境。这种指导经验是通过正式的讲座和海报会议上的热烈讨论获得的，并且在非正式讨论期间，学生有机会与该领域的领导者进行互动。目前的NSF奖通过为研究生和博士后提供部分旅费和注册费来参加GRC-PPS，延续了学生积极参与的传统。部分资金将用于扩大工业界专家的参与，以加强大学与工业界在等离子体处理科学方面的合作。在戈登研究会议的通常风格中，会议将有相对较少的会谈（大约30个），被选为该领域的前沿，并促进正式会议内外所有参与者之间的积极讨论。出席人数将限制在140人左右。在过去，我们已经邀请了来自学术界、工业界和国家实验室的参与者，预计在2006年的会议上也会有这样的参与者。鉴于主题的应用性质，GRC-PPS特别努力邀请工业研究人员作为与会者，后期演讲者，特邀演讲者和讨论领袖。这一次，我们将特别刺激工业的存在，甚至使用部分国家科学基金会的支持来这样做。2006年GRC-PPS计划的主题和邀请的演讲者反映了该主题的跨学科、应用性质、地理和种族多样性以及该领域科学和技术的少数民族代表性。受邀演讲者来自美国、西欧和东南亚的工业界和大学。专家的聚集和他们的发言构成了会议更广泛的影响。

Proposal Number: CTS-0613727Principal Investigator: Alexander FridmanInstitution: Drexel UniversityProposal Title: The Gordon Research Conference on Plasma Processing Science (GRC-PPS-2006) The next 2006 Gordon Research Conference on Plasma Processing Science (GRC-PPS) will be held 16-21 July 2006 at the Mount Holyoke College, South Hadley, MA. The GRC-PPS will bring together leading authorities, as well as beginning researchers, engineers and scientists, in the area of plasma processing science to exchange information and ideas concerning the most recent advances and future directions in this field. The Gordon Research Conference on Plasma Processing Science (GRCPPS) is a bi-annual meeting with intellectual merit focusing on both the fundamental science and advanced applications of plasmas, particularly in the context of industrial processes where materials are modified or fabricated. A continuing feature of the GRC-PPS, and its predecessor the GRC on Plasma Chemistry, is the active involvement of students and post-doctoral fellows. The GRC-PPS sees as its charter not only to be a forum for exchange of the state of the art in plasma processing science, but also to be a tutorial environment for those new to the field. This tutorial experience is obtained through the formal lectures and lively discussions at the poster sessions, and by the opportunities the students have to interact with the leaders in the field during the informal discussion times. The present NSF award continues this tradition of active student participation by providing partial support for graduate and postdoctoral students for travel expenses and registration fees to attend the GRC-PPS. Some portion of the funding will be used to extend participation of specialists from industry to intensify university-industry collaboration in the plasma processing science. In the usual style of Gordon Research Conferences, the meeting will have a relatively small number of talks (approximately 30), chosen to be at the leading edge of the field and to promote active discussion among all participants both inside and outside the formal sessions. Total attendance will be limited to approximately 140. We have had in the past, and anticipate having at the 2006 meeting, a mix of participants from academia, industry and national labs. Given the applied nature of the subject matter, GRC-PPS has made a special effort to invite industrial researchers as attendees, post-presenters, invited speakers and discussion leaders. This time we are going to stimulate especially the industrial presence, even using some portion of the NSF support to do so. The planned topics and invited speakers for the 2006 GRC-PPS reflect the interdisciplinary, applied nature of the subject, and geographic and ethnic diversity and minority representation of the science and technology of the field. Invited speakers come from industry and universities in the US, Western Europe, and South East Asia. The gathering of the experts and their discourse make up the broader impacts of the conference.
