International: Cooperative Activity in Nanotechnology between American and Japanese Universities

OISE-0623642(Neogi，Arup；北德克萨斯大学)IRES：美国和日本大学在纳米技术方面的国际合作活动“摘要该IRES奖是美国北得克萨斯大学和日本筑波大学和岛根大学之间的合作研究计划，利用每个机构的互补专业知识在纳米材料研究的跨学科领域培养美国研究生和本科生。该研究计划涉及来自美国和日本的物理、材料科学、生物和电气工程系的跨学科研究团队，以开发基于等离子体/光子带隙纳米结构和DNA晶体管的纳米级光发射器。在岛根大学，藤田康久博士领导了基于氧化锌纳米颗粒和紫外光光子带隙半导体的新型纳米级发光二极管的合作开发。在筑波大学，基于纳米光子的等离子体纳米结构和基于DNA的混合分子电子器件的研究将与浅川清博士合作进行。该奖项将在三年内每年支持六名学生在日本进行7-8周的暑期研究体验。每年的学生将包括三名研究生和三名本科生，其中至少有两名来自代表性不足的少数民族。日本科学促进会将支持北大和筑波大学之间的学生和教师交流计划的其他方面。

OISE-0623642 (Neogi, Arup; University of North Texas)IRES: International Cooperative Activity in Nanotechnology between American and Japanese Universities"ABSTRACT This IRES award is a collaborative research program between University of North Texas in the U.S. and Tsukuba University and Shimane University in Japan, drawing on complementary expertise at each institution to train U.S. graduate and undergraduate students in the interdisciplinary field of nanophotonic materials research. The research plan involves interdisciplinary research teams from the Department of Physics, Material Science, Biology and Electrical Engineering from the U.S. and Japan to develop nanoscale light emitters based on plasmonic/photonic bandgap nanostrucutres and DNA-based transistors. At Shimane University, Dr. Yasuhisa Fujita lead the collaboration in development of novel nanoscale light emitters based on ZnO nanoparticles and UV photonic bandgap semiconductors. At Tsukuba University, nanophotonic-based plasmonic nanostructures and DNA-based hybrid molecular electron device research will be conducted in collaboration with Dr. Kiyoshi Asakawa. The award will support six students per year for three years for 7-8 week summer research experiences in Japan. Each year the students will include three graduate and three undergraduate students, at least two of whom will be from underrepresented minorities. The Japan Society for the Promotion of Science will support additional aspects of the student and faculty exchange program between UNT and University of Tsukuba.
