This grant provides funds for a student paper competition and travel fellowships for graduate students from US universities to attend and participate in Phononics 2011: The First International Conference on Phononic Crystals, Metamaterials, and Optomechanics, to be held in Santa Fe, New Mexico, May 29 through June 2, 2011). The study of phonons - although a core discipline in the conventional condensed matter physics literature - is currently being viewed in a new light. Whether examined at the nanoscale, microscale or larger scales, the analysis and manipulation of phonons (aka phononics) is opening up a new technological frontier with a potential impact that could match that of electronics almost half a century ago. This conference is the world's first conference to bring together the various sub-disciplines related to the study of phonons across the various length scales. The conference covers the following seven themes: (1) phononic crystals, (2) phononic metamaterials, (3) wave propagation in periodic structures, (4) nanoscale phonon transport, (5) phononic MEMS and RF applications, (6) optomechanics, and (7) characterization and fabrication for phononics.Through this grant NSF supports the conference by (1) provision of travel fellowships for graduate students from US universities to attend and participate in the conference; and (2) sponsorship of a student paper competition, coordinated by the conference organizing committees, for Best, Second Best and Third Best Paper. This support helps the conference in its mission to establish links among the broad and multidisciplinary US and international scientific communities working in phononics, and enhances the educational mission of the conference by encouraging the participation of numerous US-based students pursuing graduate studies in areas directly related to this emerging field.

该补助金为学生论文竞赛提供资金，并为来自美国大学的研究生提供旅行奖学金，以参加2011年5月29日至6月2日在新墨西哥州圣达菲举行的声子晶体，超材料和光学力学第一届国际会议。 声子的研究--尽管是传统凝聚态物理学文献中的核心学科--目前正被从新的角度看待。无论是在纳米级、微米级还是更大的尺度上进行研究，声子（又称声子学）的分析和操纵正在开辟一个新的技术前沿，其潜在影响可能与近半个世纪前的电子学相媲美。 这次会议是世界上第一次将与各种长度尺度的声子研究相关的各种子学科聚集在一起的会议。会议涵盖以下七个主题：（1）声子晶体，（2）声子超材料，（3）周期性结构中的波传播，（4）纳米级声子输运，（5）声子MEMS和RF应用，（6）光力学，和（7）表征和制造的声子。通过这笔赠款NSF支持会议（1）为来自美国大学的研究生提供旅费资助，以便他们出席及参与会议;及（2）赞助由会议筹备委员会统筹的学生论文比赛，评选最佳、次佳及第三佳论文。这种支持有助于会议在其使命建立广泛的和多学科的美国和国际科学界之间的联系，在语音工作，并通过鼓励众多的美国学生参加提高教育使命的会议追求研究生直接相关的领域这一新兴领域。
