Support for 5th International Workshop on Nanotube Optics and Nanospectroscopy (WONTON 2013) in Santa Fe, NM, USA; Summer 2013

纳米管和石墨烯光学领域最近取得了一些令人兴奋的进展。这一领域的最新进展不仅拓宽了我们对碳纳米结构的光学特性及其新应用潜力的认识，而且还激发了对基础问题和更多技术问题的激烈讨论。NSF基金将用于部分资助研究生和特邀演讲者参加在美国NM Santa Fe举行的第五届纳米管光学和纳米光谱学国际研讨会（WONTON 2013）。2013年6月16日至20日。为期四天的研讨会将汇集世界各国领导人和年轻研究人员，讨论与纳米管和石墨烯光谱学相关的最新进展和发现。它将包括26个特邀演讲和约70个专题演讲和海报演讲。它的小尺寸和专注于纳米管和石墨烯光谱学将为年轻和成熟的研究人员之间富有成果和刺激的互动提供一个理想的论坛。

The field of nanotube and graphene optics has recently witnessed some exciting developments. The recent advances in this field have not only broadened our horizon regarding the optical properties of carbon nanostructures and their potential towards new applications, they have also stimulated intense discussions regarding issues of fundamental interest as well as more technical issues. NSF funds will be used to provide partial support for graduate students and invited speakers to attend the 5th International Workshop on Nanotube Optics and Nanospectroscopy (WONTON 2013) in Santa Fe, NM, USA., June 16-20, 2013. This four-day workshop will bring together world leaders and young researchers to discuss recent advances and discoveries related to the spectroscopy of nanotubes and graphene. It will feature 26 invited talks and about 70 contributed talks and poster presentations. Its small size and focus on nanotube and graphene spectroscopy will provide an ideal forum for fruitful and stimulating interactions among young and established researchers.
