This grant supports the next generation of researchers in dynamic systems, mechanics of materials and metamaterials by providing funding for graduate students, post-doctoral fellows and junior faculty to travel to the Fourteenth International Congress on Artificial Materials for Novel Wave Phenomena – Metamaterials 2020, which will comprise a 4-day conference (28 September-3 October), and a 2-day Doctoral School (4-5 October). It is the first time that this highly visible international conference is held in the United States. This event will represent a unique opportunity for students and young researchers to gain exposure to the latest advancements in the field of metamaterials and to meet the leading experts in this rapidly developing field. The Doctoral School course will be focused on the optical properties of engineered low-dimensional artificial materials. The recent interest in this topic is motivated by growing interest in 2D materials, metasurfaces, valleytronics and twistronics. This grant will be used to broaden participation from groups that are traditionally underrepresented in major metamaterials conferences, particularly from women, underrepresented minorities, and researchers from universities that do not typically have the funding to travel to these events.The Fourteenth International Congress on Artificial Materials for Novel Wave Phenomena will provide a unique forum to share the latest results on metamaterials research and to bring together the engineering, physics, and material science communities working in the field of artificial electromagnetic materials and their applications at microwaves, millimeter waves, terahertz, and optical frequencies, as well as in acoustics, mechanics, hydrodynamics and thermodynamics. The conference program will include four plenary talks given by eminent researchers in the field of metamaterials. In addition, leading experts will present invited talks, which will review the state-of-the art and address the latest advancements in their respective areas. The Congress holds Special Symposia, comprised of invited and contributed papers, on areas deemed to be topical and of special interest to conference attendees. The technical oral talks and interactive poster sessions will encompass a broad range of topics, from fundamental electromagnetic theory of metamaterials and complex electromagnetic media to innovative microwave and optical devices, giving the opportunity to the early career scientists and engineers supported by this grant to get access to the latest advances in the area of metamaterials.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.

该补助金通过为研究生，博士后研究员和初级教师提供资金，以支持动态系统，材料力学和超材料的下一代研究人员前往第十四届国际人工材料大会，用于新颖的波动现象-超材料2020，这将包括为期4天的会议（9月28日至10月3日）和为期两天的博士学校（10月4日至5日）。这是第一次在美国举办如此引人注目的国际会议。本次活动将为学生和年轻研究人员提供一个独特的机会，让他们了解超材料领域的最新进展，并与这一快速发展领域的领先专家会面。博士课程将侧重于工程低维人造材料的光学特性。最近对这个主题的兴趣是由对2D材料、超颖表面、谷电子学和双电子学的兴趣日益增长所激发的。这笔赠款将用于扩大传统上在重大超材料会议中代表性不足的群体的参与，特别是妇女，代表性不足的少数群体，第十四届国际人工材料新波动现象大会将提供一个独特的论坛，分享超材料研究的最新成果，工程、物理和材料科学界在人工电磁材料及其在微波、毫米波、太赫兹和光学频率的应用领域，以及在声学、力学、流体力学和热力学领域的工作。会议计划将包括由超材料领域的杰出研究人员进行的四次全体会议。此外，领先的专家将应邀出席讲座，这些讲座将回顾最先进的技术，并讨论各自领域的最新进展。大会举行特别研讨会，包括邀请和贡献的文件，对被认为是主题和特别感兴趣的领域，会议与会者。技术口头演讲和互动海报会议将涵盖广泛的主题，从超材料和复杂电磁介质的基本电磁理论到创新的微波和光学器件，该奖项旨在为早期职业科学家和工程师提供获得超材料领域最新进展的机会。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，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来提供支持。
