NSF EFRI-2DARE, DMREF-2D and MIP Grantees Meeting to be held in November 13-15, 2017 in State College, PA

该项目将于2017年11月13日至15日在宾夕法尼亚州立大学戴斯酒店举行的研讨会上汇集研究人员。研讨会将讨论广泛的非石墨烯二维原子层的研究领域，如六方氮化硼（h-BN），过渡金属二硫族化物，碳氮化物和复合氧化物的三元化合物，以及它们在各种器件中的应用。该研讨会将带来NSF EFRI二维原子层研究和工程（2-DARE）支持的研究人员，以及那些由设计材料革命和工程我们的未来（DMREF）和材料创新平台（MIP）计划支持的研究人员。通过将研究人员聚集在一起讨论上述领域的前沿研究，讲习班将促进重要的合作。它还将影响全球参与劳动力的培训，这将有助于促进科学和工程突破。研究生、博士后学者和初级教师将占与会者的很大一部分，并将受益于2D材料和设备的前沿研究以及理论/模拟/数据分析在材料发现中的应用。

The proposed project will bring together researchers in a workshop to be held in November 13-15, 2017 at the Days Inn Penn State in State College, PA. The Workshop will address research areas of a wide range of non-graphene 2D atomic layers such as hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN), transition metal di-chalcogenides, tertiary compounds of carbo-nitrides and complex oxides, as well as their applications in various devices. The Workshop will bring the NSF EFRI Two- Dimensional Atomic-Layer Research and Engineering (2-DARE) supported researchers together with those supported by the Designing Materials to Revolutionize and Engineer our Future (DMREF) and Materials Innovation Platform (MIP) programs. By bringing together researchers to discuss cutting-edge research in the above areas the Workshop will catalyze important collaborations. It will also impact training of a globally engaged workforce which will help promoting science and engineering breakthroughs. Graduate students, postdoctoral scholars and junior faculty will comprise a significant portion of the attendees and will benefit from exposure to cutting-edge research in 2D materials and devices and the application of theory/simulation/data analytics to materials discovery.
