PART 1: NON-TECHNICAL SUMMARYOur society continuously benefits from the development of a wide range of advanced materials to solve technological challenges in applications ranging from super-alloy turbine blades, solar-cells, microelectronics to new therapeutics for human diseases such as malaria. Such materials are developed by scientists with diverse backgrounds including chemistry, physics, materials science, and engineering. Novel materials are often developed at the boundaries of these disciplines and the aim of the Gordon Research Conference on Crystal Growth & Assembly, is to bring together leading scientists from these different backgrounds in order to stimulate cross-fertilization. In an effort to promote broader impact, the format of the meeting emphasizes interaction with and active participation of young scientists, i.e., students and post-docs, in order to educate a new generation of researchers that will have to meet future materials challenges in a changing world where (some) resources become increasingly scarce. NSF's Division of Materials Research (DMR) acknowledges the importance of the conference by supporting stipends for registration fee and/or travel support for some participants through its Cross-Cutting Activities Program.PART 2: TECHNICAL SUMMARYThe Crystal Growth & Assembly Gordon Research Conference and Seminar is dedicated to the knowledge and understanding of the fundamental atomic and nanoscale physics and chemistry that are central to the nucleation and growth of crystals for a wide array of technologies. Such knowledge and understanding is needed to develop advanced materials for applications ranging from super-alloy turbine blades, solar-cells, microelectronics to new therapeutics for pathological diseases such as malaria. The 2017 conference has a particular focus on the self-assembly of meta-materials, a new class of materials that is expected to form the basis of novel applications, ranging from energy harvesting to self-healing materials. This conference, with support from NSF's Division of Materials Research (DMR), gathers leading scientists representing the major areas in the field of crystallization and brings them into contact with each other and, more importantly, with the next generation of researchers in the field to promote broader outreach within the crystal growth community. With respect to this larger goal, the meeting seeks to provide a common language for our diverse student body; to raise the comfort-level of our student/postdoc participants; and, through these efforts, to develop a tightly-woven community held together by a common interest in the principles of materials assembly. The accompanying Gordon Research Seminar that is dedicated to and organized by graduate students and post-doctoral researchers aids in the active participation of this new generation of scientists.

第1部分：非技术摘要协会不断受益于开发各种高级材料，以解决从超级合金涡轮叶片，太阳能电池，微电池，微电源到诸如疟疾等人类疾病的新疗法的应用中的技术挑战。这种材料是由具有不同背景的科学家开发的，包括化学，物理，材料科学和工程。新颖的材料通常是在这些学科的边界开发的，戈登晶体生长与组装研究会议的目的是将来自这些不同背景的主要科学家汇集在一起​​，以刺激交叉施肥。为了促进更广泛的影响，会议的格式强调了与年轻科学家（即学生和毕业后）与年轻科学家的积极参与并积极参与，以教育新一代的研究人员，这些研究人员必须在不断变化的世界中应对未来的材料挑战，在某些资源（某些）资源变得越来越稀缺。 NSF的材料研究部（DMR）通过支持一些参与者的辅助津贴和/或旅行支持来承认会议的重要性。第2部分：汇总晶体增长和晶体增长戈登研究会议和研讨会的技术，致力于核心和化学的核心和化学的核心，并了解核心的核心和理解。广泛的技术。需要这种知识和理解来开发从超级合金涡轮叶片，太阳能电池，微电子机器到诸如疟疾等病理疾病的新疗法的应用。 2017年会议特别关注元物质的自组装，这是一种新的材料，预计将构成新型应用的基础，从能量收集到自我修复材料。在NSF的材料研究部（DMR）的支持下，这次会议收集了代表结晶领域主要领域的主要科学家，并将它们彼此接触，更重要的是，与该领域的下一代研究人员一起促进了晶体成长社区内的更广泛的外展活动。关于这个更大的目标，会议旨在为我们的多样化学生团体提供通用语言；提高我们的学生/博士后参与者的舒适级别；而且，通过这些努力，建立一个由材料议会原则的共同利益共同融合在一起的紧密编织的社区。由研究生和博士后研究人员致力于和组织的随附的戈登研究研讨会有助于这一新一代科学家的积极参与。
