Travel Support of Infrared Terahertz Quantum Workshop 2019, To Be Held in Ojai California, September 15-20 2019

拟议的项目寻求财政支持，以加强研究生和博士后在2019年9月15日至20日在加利福尼亚州奥哈伊举行的研讨会上的参与。《2019红外太赫兹量子研讨会》将重点介绍红外和太赫兹频率范围内量子和电磁工程光子材料中的各种新物理现象，以及如何利用这些现象来创造新的光电子器件和应用。研讨会将邀请来自世界各地领先机构的世界知名专家参加。它将把学术、政府和行业的科学家聚集在一个亲密的场所，以鼓励密切的互动和合作。讲习班将促进与子带间有关的低维系统、中红外和太赫兹源和探测器、2D系统中的集体效应(强和超强耦合)、中红外和太赫兹材料和超材料以及中红外和太赫兹应用的领先物理研究方面的进展。除了约60场技术会谈外，主办方还计划了3场全体会议，10场特邀会谈。还将举行30至50张海报的张贴会。研讨会期间还将举行一次“重点讨论”。会议的重点将是极化子和强耦合现象。该技术课程将为学生参与者提供接触到子带间跃迁和相关设备及其工程应用的物理的机会。将就设备技术进行积极的新思想交流，这将有利于学生和年轻学者追求高质量的研究。会议将促进科学交流和讨论。《2019年红外太赫兹量子研讨会》有望在确定研究新方向方面发挥关键作用。让下一代研究人员接触这些重要学科，对于了解新的红外太赫兹量子科学和技术的进展至关重要。学生们将接触到这一领域的新进展。将允许参与者之间的国际互动和合作机会。除了传播与研讨会相关的科学信息外，研讨会网站还将把讲座存档，并向公众开放。这一奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

The proposed project seeks financial support for enhancing graduate student and postdoc participation, at a Workshop to be held from September 15 to 20, 2019 at Ojai California. The "Infrared Terahertz Quantum Workshop 2019" will focus on a variety of novel physical phenomena in quantum- and electromagnetically-engineered photonic materials in the infrared and terahertz frequency range and the exploitation of these phenomena to create novel optoelectronic devices and applications. The Workshop will host world-renowned experts from leading institutions around the world. It will bring together academic, government, and industry scientists in an intimate venue to encourage close interaction and collaboration. The workshop will foster advances in the leading research of physics of inter-subband related low-dimensional systems, Mid-infrared and THz sources and detectors, collective effects in 2D systems (strong and ultra-strong coupling), Mid-infrared and THz materials and metamaterials and Mid-infrared and THz applications. In addition to about sixty technical talks, the organizers have also planned three plenary talks, ten invited talks. There will also be a poster session with thirty to fifty posters. A "Focused session" will also take place during the workshop. The focused session will be on Polaritonics and Strong Coupling Phenomena. The technical program will provide student participants with the opportunity to gain exposure to physics of inter-subband transitions and related devices and their engineering applications. There will be a vigorous exchange of new ideas on device technology that will benefit to students and young scholars in their pursuit of high-quality research. The meeting will promote scientific exchanges and discussions. The "Infrared Terahertz Quantum Workshop 2019" is expected to play a key role in identifying new directions for research. Exposing the next generation of researchers to these important disciplines is critical for learning how the new Infrared Terahertz Quantum science and technology progresses. Students will gain exposure to the new advances in this field. will allow international interactions and collaboration opportunities among the participants. In addition to the dissemination of scientific information associated with the workshop, the Workshop website will archive the talks, which will be generally available to a wide public.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
