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

拟议的项目将于2019年9月15日至20日在加州奥海举行的研讨会上寻求财政支持，以提高研究生和博士后的参与度。“2019年红外太赫兹量子研讨会”将重点关注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型物理现象，以及利用这些现象创造新型光电器件和应用。研讨会将邀请来自世界领先机构的世界知名专家参加。它将把学术界、政府和工业界的科学家聚集在一个亲密的场所，鼓励密切的互动和合作。研讨会将促进与子带间相关的低维系统、中红外和太赫兹源和探测器、二维系统中的集体效应（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学研究的进展。除了约六十场技术会谈外，组织者还计划了三场全体会谈，十场特邀会谈。还将有30至50张海报的海报会议。研讨会期间还将举行“重点会议”。重点讨论极化电子学和强耦合现象。该技术计划将为学生参与者提供机会，以获得接触子带间转换和相关设备及其工程应用的物理。大会将积极交流有关设备技术的新思想，这将有利于学生和青年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”预计将在确定新的研究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技术的进展至关重要。学生们将接触到这一领域的最新进展。将允许参与者之间的国际互动和合作机会。除了传播与讲习班有关的科学信息外，讲习班网站还将把这些会谈存档，并向广大公众开放。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值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.
