This grant provides funding to support a group of US scientists, postdoctoral scholars, and graduate students to attend the 8th International Workshop on Piezoresponse Force Microscopy and Nanoscale Electromechanics of Polar Materials, to be held at University of Science and Technology Beijing, China, on August 25-27, 2010. Coupling between electrical and mechanical phenomena is ubiquitous in nature and underpins the functionality of materials and systems as diversified as ferroelectrics and multiferroics, electroactive molecules, and biological systems. The development of piezoresponse force microscopy in the last decade has led to rapid advances in the investigation of electromechanics with unprecedented resolution, and this workshop aims to provide in-depth discussions on piezoresponse force microscopy, nanoscale electromechanics, and their applications in functional materials and biological systems. The grant will support five leading scientists and 10 postdoctoral scholars and graduate students from US to participate the workshop, and the support for postdoctoral scholars and graduate students will be awarded based on their research abstract, short CV, and recommendation letter.The travel support will enable US scientists, postdoctoral scholars, and graduate students to participate the workshop in an international setting. They will share and learn the state of art and challenges in piezoresponse force microscopy and nanoscale electromechanics through invited lectures, poster sessions, and laboratory demonstrations. They will also have ample opportunities to interact with scientists and students from other countries, which will facilitate future international collaborations. Such experience will be invaluable for developing the skills of a group of highly talented postdoctoral scholars and graduate students who will be the next generation of industry professionals and academics.

这项赠款提供了资金，以支持一群美国科学家，博士后学者和研究生参加第8个国际对压电材料显微镜和极地材料的纳米级电力学的国际研讨会，将于8月25日至27日在中国科学技术北京大学举行，于2010年8月25日至27日在中国的材料和机械构成的材料和机械效果之间。铁电和多铁，电活性分子和生物系统。在过去的十年中，压电响应力显微镜的发展导致了以前所未有的分辨率进行机电研究的快速进步，该研讨会旨在提供有关Piezoresponse Force显微镜，纳米级机械学及其在功能材料材料和生物学系统中的应用的深入讨论。该赠款将支持来自我们的五名主要科学家和10名博士后学者和研究生参加研讨会，并将根据他们的研究摘要，简短的简历和推荐信，对博士后学者和研究生的支持。他们将通过邀请的讲座，海报会议和实验室示范来共享和学习压电力显微镜和纳米级机电的最先进和挑战的状态。他们还将有足够的机会与其他国家的科学家和学生互动，这将促进未来的国际合作。这种经验对于发展一群才华横溢的博士后学者和研究生的技能将是无价的，这些学者和研究生将成为下一代行业专业人士和学者。
