Proposal: OISE-0854945PI: Andrei Stanishevsky, University of AlabamaThis U.S.-Poland award will support a series of two workshops on the ?Science and Applications of Nanoscale Diamond Materials?. The workshops will take place in Zakopane, Poland and in Hejnice, Czech Repulic. They will take place in 2009 and 2010 and will be organized by Dr. Andrei Staniskevsky (University of Alabama), Dr. Yogesh Vohra (University of Alabama), Prof. Stanislaw Mitura (Technical University of Lodz, Poland), and Prof. Petr Louda (Technical University of Liberec, Czech Republic). The purpose of the workshops is to provide a forum to discuss five major challenge areas in nanoscale diamond thin-film and particles materials. They include: (i) microscopic understanding of the mechanisms of the nanocrystalline (NCD) films nucleation and growth; (ii) intrinsic stresses in NCD films; (iii) modification of the surface chemistry of both nanoscale diamond films and particles; (iv) control of aggregation phenomena and preparation of non-aggregated diamond nanoparticles with a narrow size distribution; and (v) control of diamond nanoparticle fluorescence. Each workshop will bring together researchers from the U.S and Europe to evaluate current fundamental research and development challenges, knowledge gaps, and research needs. Particular emphasis will be placed on educating students and junior researchers on the science of nanoscale materials and structures. The participants will include 14 U.S. students and junior researchers from the University of Alabama and Alabama State University. The workshops will address key challenge areas in nanoscale diamond materials. They will strengthen collaboration in nanoscale diamond materials between researchers in the U.S. and Europe by providing a forum for the researchers to coordinate and plan joint research and student training activities. The workshops will enable U.S. undergraduate students, graduate students, and junior researchers to develop an international research network early in their careers.

建议：OISE-0854945PI：阿拉巴马大学Andrei Stanishevsky这个美国-波兰奖项将支持一系列关于纳米级钻石材料的科学和应用的研讨会。研讨会将在波兰的扎科帕内和捷克的海尼斯市举行。它们将于2009年和2010年举行，由Andrei Staniskevsky博士(阿拉巴马大学)、Yogesh Vohra博士(阿拉巴马大学)、Stanislaw Mitura教授(波兰罗兹工业大学)和Petr Louda教授(捷克共和国利伯莱克技术大学)组织。讲习班的目的是提供一个论坛，讨论纳米级金刚石薄膜和颗粒材料的五个主要挑战领域。包括：(I)纳米晶(NCD)膜成核和生长机理的微观理解；(Ii)NCD膜的内应力；(Iii)纳米级金刚石膜和颗粒的表面化学修饰；(Iv)控制聚集现象和制备尺寸分布较窄的非团聚金刚石纳米颗粒；(V)控制纳米金刚石颗粒的荧光。每个研讨会将汇集来自美国和欧洲的研究人员，以评估当前的基础研究和开发挑战、知识差距和研究需求。将特别重视对学生和初级研究人员进行纳米材料和结构科学方面的教育。参与者将包括来自阿拉巴马大学和阿拉巴马州立大学的14名美国学生和初级研究人员。讲习班将解决纳米级钻石材料方面的关键挑战领域。他们将通过为研究人员提供一个协调和计划联合研究和学生培训活动的论坛，加强美国和欧洲研究人员在纳米级钻石材料方面的合作。这些研讨会将使美国本科生、研究生和初级研究人员能够在职业生涯早期建立一个国际研究网络。
