The 2008 Materials Research Society Fall Meeting will be held December 1-5 in Boston, Massachusetts. Forty-five (45) symposia will be the technical core of the meeting, among them the F08QQ Synthesis and Processing of Organic and Polymeric Functional Materials for a Sustainable Energy Economy Symposium. Photovoltaics and solid-state lighting are examples of technologies that are envisaged in a new sustainable energy economy since these technologies would enable us to use a renewable energy source and to use present energy sources more efficiently. This symposium will be the venue for discussing novel synthesis and processing methods to fabricate organic and functional polymeric materials. Session topics include synthesis of organic and functional polymers for low-dimensional and three-dimensional materials, novel methods for directed assembly and printing, synthesis of engineered polymers and materials for optimal photon-electron energy transfer, synthesis of novel architectures to optimize energy transfer across interfaces, new materials for optoelectronics and photovoltaics, "Green" synthesis and processing methods, and innovations in materials characterization This proposal requests travel support mainly for undergraduate/graduate students, post-docs and junior faculty to attend Symposium F08QQ.Intellectual Merit:The Materials Research Society has a longstanding tradition to provide an international forum where senior researchers from academia and industry and students can exchange and debate new ideas. The list of invited speakers includes several international experts on organic-based photovoltaics and solid state lighting. This symposium provides excellent opportunity to accelerate the progress of energy and sustainability-related scientific research, as well as a great educational opportunity for participating students. The organizers comprise an interdisciplinary international team that is well qualified to prepare and conduct the symposium. All of them are internationally recognized experts with strong track publication records. Funding for this symposium will be used to facilitate participation by graduate students, postdoctoral researchers and young faculty through travel support.Broader Impacts:International symposiums are a highly effective means to exchange knowledge and advance science and engineering in an area of national importance. New materials for photovoltaics are expected to promote the diversification of energy resources whereas solid-state lighting will contribute to energy conservation, both goals of national interest.Bringing together researchers with different skills and backgrounds will facilitate knowledge leveraging and dissemination. Senior researchers will serve as role models to junior faculty and students. The 2008 Materials Research Society Fall Meeting will provide excellent educational opportunities for all participants in the form of several tutorials that are free of charge.

2008年材料研究会秋季会议将于12月1日至5日在马萨诸塞州波士顿举行。四十五(45)个研讨会将是会议的技术核心，其中F08QQ有机和聚合物功能材料的合成和加工可持续能源经济研讨会。光伏和固态照明是新的可持续能源经济中设想的技术的例子，因为这些技术将使我们能够使用可再生能源并更有效地利用现有能源。本次研讨会将讨论新的合成和加工方法，以制备有机和功能聚合物材料。讲座主题包括：用于低维和三维材料的有机和功能聚合物的合成，定向组装和印刷的新方法，工程聚合物的合成和优化光子-电子能量转移的材料，用于光电子学和光伏的新材料的合成，用于光电子学和光伏的新材料，“绿色”合成和加工方法，以及材料表征的创新。该建议要求主要为本科生/研究生，博士后和初级教员参加F08Q研讨会提供差旅支持。受邀演讲者名单包括几位有机光伏和固态照明方面的国际专家。这次研讨会为加快能源和可持续发展相关科学研究的进展提供了绝佳的机会，也为参与的学生提供了一个很好的教育机会。组织者由一个跨学科的国际团队组成，他们完全有资格筹备和主持这次研讨会。他们都是国际公认的专家，有着良好的出版记录。此次研讨会的资金将用于通过旅行支持促进研究生、博士后研究人员和年轻教师的参与。广泛影响：国际研讨会是在国家重要领域交流知识和推进科学和工程的一种非常有效的手段。预计光伏新材料将促进能源来源的多样化，而固态照明将有助于节能，这两个目标都是国家利益。将不同技能和背景的研究人员聚集在一起，将有助于知识的利用和传播。资深研究人员将成为初级教职员工和学生的榜样。2008年材料研究会秋季会议将以免费的几个教程的形式为所有参与者提供极好的教育机会。
