32nd International Vacuum Nanoelectronics and 12th International Vacuum Electron Sources Conferences, To Be Held in Cincinnati, Ohio, July 22-26, 2019

拟议项目寻求财政支持，以提高研究生的参与度，国际真空纳米电子学（IVNC）和国际真空电子源（IVESC）会议将于2019年7月22日至26日在俄亥俄州辛辛那提辛辛那提大学校园举行首次联席会议。会议将重点讨论真空电子源和应用，从基本原理到最新技术进展，包括全体报告、特邀报告、贡献了演讲和海报。他们将促进真空电子源领先研究的进展，包括理论、材料、结构、器件及其应用、场发射、热发射、光发射、二次发射、光场发射和光增强场发射。将讨论发射基础知识和建模，同时考虑用于电子发射和真空隧道的新型材料。还将讨论电子源的物理和技术及其应用。 会议将包括一系列关于真空电子源和应用领域一些快速发展领域的三门短期课程，从基本原理到最新技术进展。这些短期课程预计将帮助学生和其他年轻科学家对真空器件研究形成多学科的理解。该技术项目将为学生参与者提供接触真空电子学新材料和设备、基础物理及其工程应用的机会。 让下一代研究人员接触这些重要学科对于了解真空纳米电子学的新科学和技术如何发展至关重要。学生将接触到材料生长、制造技术和器件物理方面的新进展。会议将包括三门短期课程，作为注册的一部分向所有与会者提供。精选论文集将发表在《真空科学与技术 B》杂志上。这些信息将通过会议记录和期刊传播。该奖项反映了 NSF 的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力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 participation, at the first joint meeting of the International Vacuum Nanoelectronics (IVNC) and International Vacuum Electron Sources (IVESC) Conferences to be held at the campus of the University of Cincinnati, in Cincinnati, Ohio, from July 22-26, 2019. The conferences will focus on vacuum electron sources and applications, from basic principles to the most recent technological advances and include plenary talks, invited talks, contributed talks and posters. They will foster advances in the leading research of vacuum electron sources including theory, materials, structures, devices and their applications, field, thermal, photo, secondary, photo, and photo-enhanced field emission. Emission fundamentals and modeling will be addressed together with consideration of novel materials for electron emission and vacuum tunneling. The physics and technology of electron sources and their applications will also be addressed. The meeting will consist of a series of three short courses in some of the fast-growing areas in the field of vacuum electron sources and applications, from basic principles to the most recent technological advances. The short courses are expected to help students and other young scientists to develop a multidisciplinary understanding of vacuum device research. The technical program will provide student participants with the opportunity to gain exposure to new materials and devices for vacuum electronics, their basic physics, and their engineering applications. Exposing the next generation of researchers to these important disciplines is critical for learning how the new science and technology of vacuum nanoelectronics are developing. Students will gain exposure to the new advances in material growth, fabrication technology and device physics. The meeting will include three short courses which will be offered to all attendees as part of their registration. A collection of selected papers will be published in the Journal of Vacuum Science and Technology B. The information will be disseminated through the conference proceedings and the journals.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.
