2011 Chemical Reactions at Surfaces Gordon Research Conference: Feb 6-11, 2011 in Ventura, CA

1062417表面的阶梯化学反应是催化、涂层、润滑、固态设备和其他技术中的关键过程，这些技术对于提高生活质量同时减少人类活动对环境的不利影响至关重要。新的表面处理方法的发现和开发以及现有表面处理方法的改进，特别是在光化学领域，可以为确保国家的能源供应做出重要贡献。该提案要求支持2011年戈登表面化学反应会议。该会议将于2011年2月6日至11日在加州文图拉的文图拉海滩举行，将汇集领先的专家讨论该领域最新和最令人兴奋的工作。主题包括：-金属催化，-表面能量转换，-表面氢的产生和分离，-表面液体，-光化学中的界面化学，-氧化物表面的化学反应，-CO2转化的表面化学。年轻研究人员的参与将为本次会议增添重要价值，并将促进学术和工业问题相结合的领域的当前和未来领导者之间的交流。会议的设置和程序使与会者留在现场，并最大限度地提高互动和知识话语和网络。

1062417StairChemical reactions at surfaces are key processes in catalysis, coatings, lubrication, solid state devices, and other technologies that are critical for improving the quality of life while simultaneously reducing the adverse impact of human activities on the environment. The discovery and development of new surface processes and the improvement of existing ones, particularly in the area of photovoltaics, can make important contributions to securing the nation's energy supply. This proposal requests support for the 2011 Gordon Conference on ChemicalReactions at Surfaces. The conference, which will be held at the Ventura Beach Marriotin Ventura, California on February 6 - 11, 2011, will bring together leading experts todiscuss the latest and most exciting work in the field. Topics include:- catalysis by metals, - energy conversion at surfaces, - hydrogen production and separation at surfaces, - liquids at surfaces, - interfacial chemistry in photovoltaics,- chemical reactions at oxide surfaces, - surface chemistry of CO2 conversion.A special effort will be made to support young scientists who otherwise would be unable to attend: junior faculty members, postdoctoral fellows and advanced graduate students. Participation by young researchers will add significant value to this conference and will foster communications among current and future leaders in a field that combines academic and industrial issues. The setting and program for the conference keeps the participants on site and maximizes interactions and intellectual discourse and networking.
