The Ninth U.S.-Korea Forum on Nanotechnology: Exploring New Direction for Convergence of Nano Science to Technology and Application (June 4-5 2012 in Seoul, Korea)

PI：Jhon，Myung提案编号：1225183机构：卡内基-梅隆大学标题：第九届美韩纳米技术论坛：探索纳米科学向技术和应用融合的新方向国际将于2012年6月4日至5日在韩国首尔举办第九届美韩纳米技术论坛。该论坛不仅是前八届纳米技术论坛的延续，也是预测未来十年纳米科学和技术进展的机会。过去十年组织的论坛侧重于确定变革性纳米技术在包括活跃的纳米装置和系统、可持续纳米制造、教育、纳米能源、纳米生物技术和纳米电子学在内的广泛科学和工程领域(NANO1)的融合中的萌芽作用。2011年举行的第八届论坛侧重于纳米技术在可持续性方面的融合，重点是面向未来的环境友好型技术；论坛通过解决全球人口不断增加所面临的复杂问题，突出了下一个十年纳米技术的新天地(NAN02)。拟议中的论坛将进一步为两国的科学家和工程师建立一个共同的平台，将重点放在未来十年(NAN02)的新研发方向上，在那里纳米技术将产生巨大影响。论坛将就NAN02的新优先事项提出建议，并就汇聚技术的纳米基础、可持续性、纳米电子学和生物医学过程等主题建立里程碑。PI将是美国参与的组织者，其中将包括一名主旨演讲者、10名高级演讲者和6名职业生涯早期参与者。由韩国组织者挑选的大致相同数量的韩国主持人也将参加。论坛的会议记录和调查结果将发表在卡内基梅隆大学的网站上，并将通过技术期刊上的一期特刊向科学界提供。智力价值与以前的论坛不同，本次论坛的新贡献是将NaNO2的成就整合到未来的应用中，并确定了NAN02在未来十年的关键主题和好处。本次论坛还将促进两国在NAN02新兴领域的研究、教育和政策问题的交流。随着纳米技术领域顶尖科学家和工程师之间的思想交流，该论坛将为未来十年推荐该领域的新范例，并促进两国之间的合作倡议。该论坛将把NAN02带给公众，从而在更广泛的意义上为社会和全球环境做出重大贡献。为实现这些目标，国际和平研究所将在一份向科学界广泛宣传的技术期刊的特刊上发表论坛的内容。

PI: Jhon, Myung Proposal Number: 1225183Institution: Carnegie-Mellon University Title: The Ninth U.S.-Korea Forum on Nanotechnology: Exploring New Directions for Convergence of Nanoscience to Technology and Applications The PI will organize the ninth forum on nanotechnology between the United States and Korea, to be held on June 4th and 5th 2012 in Seoul, Korea. This Forum is not only a continuation of the previous eight Forums on nanotechnology but also an opportunity to forecast advances in nanoscience and technology during the coming decade. The Forums organized in the past decade focused in establishing the budding role of transformative nanotechnology in the convergence of a broad range of scientific and engineering areas (NANO1) including active nano-devices and systems, sustainable nanomanufacturing, education, nano-energy, nano-biotechnology, and nano-electronics. The eighth Forum held in 2011 focused on nanotechnology convergence in sustainability with an emphasis on environmentally friendly technologies for the future; the Forum highlighted new horizons in nanotechnology for the next decade (NAN02) by addressing complex problems faced by an ever increasing global population. The proposed Forum will further establish a common platform for scientists and engineers from both countries by focusing on new R&D directions in the next decade (NAN02), where nanotechnology will have dramatic impacts. The Forum will provide recommendations for new priorities and establish milestones for NAN02 regarding topics such as nano-fundamentals for convergence technologies, sustainability, nano-electronics, and biomedical processes. The PI will be the organizer for the U.S. participation, which will include one keynote speaker, 10 senior presenters and six early-career participants. Roughly equal numbers of Korean presenters selected by Korean organizers will also participate. The Forum proceedings and findings will be published on Carnegie Mellon's website and will be available to a scientific community via a special issue in technical journals. Intellectual MeritThe novel contribution of this Forum, in contrast to previous Forums, is integrating the achievements in NANO 1 into future applications and identifying critical topics and benefits in NAN02 for the next decade. This Forum will also promote the exchange of research, education, and policy issues between the two countries in the emerging area of NAN02. Broader Impacts Along with the exchange of ideas among the leading scientists and engineers in nanotechnology area, this Forum will recommend new paradigms in this field for the next decade and promote collaborative initiatives between the two countries. The Forum will make a significant contribution to society and the global environment in a broader sense by bringing NAN02 to the public. To achieve these goals, the PI will publish the content of the Forum in a special issue of a technical journal for extensive outreach to scientific community.
