The program will provide financial support for student participants to attend the IEEE Photonics Society Summer Topical Meetings to be held in Montreal on July 14-16, 2014. The Topical Meetings provide a unique forum where members from academia, national labs, industry, and government labs working in the same field will convene in a highly interactive environment to foster active cross-disciplinary discussions. In addition, the workshop will define key strategic directions for future research in the topical areas by creating synergies between academia, industry and national laboratories, and is expected to broadly impact interdisciplinary scientific efforts. The program will also sponsor a student poster session and poster presentation awards at the conference. The Summer Topical Meetings are the premier conference series hosted by IEEE for exciting, new areas in photonic science, technology, and applications. The Meetings will also set broad directions for future research and will impact interdisciplinary scientific efforts in the five topical areas covered by the meetings. The research fields covered by the topical meetings are of considerable interest to many current programs of the ECCS division. The NSF support is expected to significantly promote student participation in the conference, and provide a unique opportunity for the students to learn about emerging fields in photonics research and to interact with leaders from both academia and industry in an intimate environment. Participation of graduate/undergraduate students, in particular those from underrepresented groups, will be fostered leveraging NSF funds to partially cover registration and travel expenses.The topics to be discussed in this year's Summer Topical Meetings span a broad range in related emerging areas of research, from materials to devices, integrated photonics, and systems. The conferences will cover five topical areas: Midwave Infrared Integrated Photonics (MWIP), Functional Meta- and Two-dimensional Materials (FMTM), Nanowire Materials and Integrated Photonics (NWIP), Nonlinear-Optical Signal Processing (NOSP), and Space-division Multiplexing technologies for high capacity transmission (SDMT). The FMTM topic will cover advances both in metamaterials, with focus on functional structures and device configurations, and in two-dimensional materials including graphene and other 2D materials, and their exciting potentials in photonics. The NWIP topic will cover nanowire related materials and devices, as well as heterogeneous integration. The MWIP topic will focus on integrated photonic technologies, optical physics, and emerging application trends of mid-IR photonics. The NOSP topic will span both traditional and emerging materials, as well as various nanophotonic platforms and advanced format and algorithms used for NOSP. The SDMT community will share the exciting advances in all areas related to SDM, from devices to system integration. These topics, proposed by experts in the respective areas and selected by the IEEE Photonics Society, represent some of the most important and intensively investigated fields as deemed by the photonics community.

该计划将为参加2014年7月14-16日在蒙特利尔举行的IEEE光子学学会夏季专题会议的学生提供资金支持。专题会议提供了一个独特的论坛，来自同一领域的学术界、国家实验室、行业和政府实验室的成员将在高度互动的环境中聚集，以促进积极的跨学科讨论。此外，讲习班将通过在学术界、工业界和国家实验室之间建立协同作用，为未来专题领域的研究确定关键的战略方向，并预计将广泛影响跨学科的科学努力。该计划还将在会议上赞助学生海报环节和海报颁奖典礼。夏季主题会议是IEEE为光子科学、技术和应用领域令人兴奋的新领域举办的主要会议系列。这些会议还将为今后的研究确定广泛的方向，并将影响会议所涵盖的五个专题领域的跨学科科学努力。专题会议所涵盖的研究领域对ECCS部门目前的许多项目都很感兴趣。NSF的支持预计将极大地促进学生参与会议，并为学生提供一个独特的机会，让他们了解新兴的光子学研究领域，并在亲密的环境中与学术界和产业界的领导人互动。研究生/本科生的参与，特别是那些来自代表不足的群体的学生，将利用NSF的资金来部分支付注册和旅费。今年夏季主题会议将讨论的主题涉及从材料到设备、集成光子学和系统等相关新兴研究领域的广泛范围。会议将涵盖五个主题领域：中波红外集成光子学(MWIP)、功能元和二维材料(FMTM)、纳米线材料和集成光子学(NWIP)、非线性光信号处理(NOSP)和用于高容量传输的空分复用(SDMT)技术。FMTM主题将涵盖超材料方面的进展，重点是功能结构和器件配置，以及包括石墨烯和其他2D材料在内的二维材料及其在光子学中的激发潜力。NWIP主题将涵盖与纳米线相关的材料和器件，以及异质集成。MWIP主题将集中于集成光子技术、光学物理和中红外光子学的新兴应用趋势。NOSP主题将涵盖传统材料和新兴材料，以及用于NOSP的各种纳米光子平台和先进格式和算法。SDMT社区将分享与SDM相关的所有领域的令人兴奋的进步，从设备到系统集成。这些主题由各自领域的专家提出，由IEEE光子学学会挑选，代表了光子界认为最重要和最深入研究的一些领域。
