Objective: The objective of this proposal is to request travel and subsistence funds from NSF to enable students and junior faculty to participate in the ?Workshop on Opportunities for Magnetism in MEMS/NEMS? to be held April 16-17, 2010 at Argonne National Laboratory, Argonne, IL. The workshop is co-sponsored by Argonne National Laboratory and the National Institute of Standards and Technology.Intellectual Merit: The transition from microelectromechanical (MEMS) to nanoelectromechanical (NEMS) will require reconsideration of the basic assumptions regarding how best to transfer forces and torques in these systems. In particular, there are indications that magnetic actuation may be more effective than conventional electrostatic actuation at the nanoscale. The purpose of this workshop is to gather together experts in the nascent field of magnetic microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) and nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS) in order to explore new paradigms and promote the exchange of ideas and methods. The experts will be gathered from academia, industry, and government to review recent breakthroughs, consider the merits of magnetic NEMS and discuss limitations and open research questions in magnetic MEMS/NEMS. It is anticipated that the workshop will generate new insights, research projects and collaborative opportunities. Broader Impact: The workshop will coalesce a new community of researchers in this nascent field. By encouraging the participation of young faculty and students, it is ensured that workshop will have a long-term impact on science and technology. A CD containing all of the invited presentations and posters will be distributed to each of the participants following the meeting. The same files will also be made available on the workshop web page for free access. The organizers of the workshop will seek to diversify the demographic composition of the attendees by inviting researchers from traditionally underrepresented groups.

目的：这项建议的目的是要求旅行和生活费从国家科学基金会，使学生和初级教师参加？MEMS/NEMS中磁性的机会研讨会将于2010年4月16-17日在伊利诺伊州阿贡的阿贡国家实验室举行。该研讨会是共同主办的阿贡国家实验室和国家标准与技术研究所。智力优点：从微机电（MEMS）到纳机电（NEMS）的过渡将需要重新考虑的基本假设，关于如何最好地转移这些系统中的力和扭矩。特别是，有迹象表明，磁致动可能比传统的静电致动在纳米级更有效。本次研讨会的目的是聚集在磁性微机电系统（MEMS）和纳米机电系统（NEMS）的新兴领域的专家，以探索新的模式，促进思想和方法的交流。来自学术界、工业界和政府的专家将齐聚一堂，回顾最近的突破，考虑磁性NEMS的优点，并讨论磁性MEMS/NEMS的局限性和开放性研究问题。预计讲习班将产生新的见解、研究项目和合作机会。更广泛的影响：研讨会将在这个新兴领域凝聚一个新的研究人员社区。通过鼓励青年教师和学生的参与，确保讲习班将对科学和技术产生长期影响。会后将向每一位与会者分发一张载有所有应邀发言和海报的光盘。这些文件也将在讲习班网页上免费提供。研讨会的组织者将设法使与会者的人口构成多样化，邀请历来代表性不足的群体的研究人员参加。
