2023 Crystal Growth and Assembly Gordon Research Conference and Gordon Research Seminar

关于晶体生长和组装的2023年戈登研究会议(GRC)和关于晶体生长和组装的2023年戈登研究研讨会(GRS)将分别于2023年6月18-23日和6月17-18日在南新汉普郡大学举行。我们的社会不断受益于各种先进材料的开发，以解决从太阳能电池、fl可再生电子产品和催化剂到疟疾等人类疾病的新疗法等应用中的技术挑战。这种材料是由具有不同背景的科学家开发的，包括化学、物理、材料科学和工程学。新材料通常是在这些学科的边界上开发出来的，戈登晶体生长和组装研究会议的目的是将来自这些不同背景的领先科学家聚集在一起，以刺激交叉受精。为了促进更广泛的影响，会议的形式强调与青年科学家，即学生和博士后的互动和积极参与，以培养新一代研究人员，他们将不得不在(一些)资源日益稀缺的不断变化的世界中迎接未来的材料挑战。NSF的固态和材料化学计划和凝聚态物质和材料理论计划都在材料研究部，为参加这次会议的一些职业生涯早期参与者提供注册费和/或旅行支持津贴，因为它与他们各自的方案范围相关。技术总结晶体生长和组装戈登研究会议和研讨会致力于了解和理解对晶体成核和生长至关重要的基本原子和纳米级物理和化学，以及将其组装成有序材料的各种技术。这些知识是为各种应用开发先进材料所必需的。2023年GRC会议特别关注理论和实验的结合，以预测和理解晶体生长和组装。在材料研究部NSF固态和材料化学计划和凝聚态物质和材料理论计划的支持下，本次会议聚集了代表结晶和组装主要领域的顶尖科学家，并使他们相互接触，更重要的是，与下一代研究人员接触，以促进晶体生长社区内更广泛的拓展。对于这个更大的目标，会议试图为我们不同的学生群体提供一种共同语言；提高我们学生/博士后参与者的舒适度；并通过这些efforts，发展一个由对材料组装原则的共同兴趣而紧密联系在一起的社区。随之而来的戈登研究研讨会是由研究生和博士后研究人员致力于并组织的，有助于这一新一代科学家的积极参与。该奖项反映了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。

Non-Technical SummaryThe 2023 Gordon Research Conference (GRC) on Crystal Growth and Assembly: Mechanistic Understanding of the Growth and Assembly of Ordered Materials, and the 2023 Gordon Research Seminar (GRS) on Crystal Growth and Assembly are being held at Southern New Hampshire University on June 18-23 and June 17-18, 2023, respectively. Our society continuously benefits from the development of a wide range of advanced materials to solve technological challenges in applications ranging from solar cells, flexible electronics and catalysts to new therapeutics for human diseases such as malaria. Such materials are developed by scientists with diverse backgrounds including chemistry, physics, materials science, and engineering. Novel materials are often developed at the boundaries of these disciplines and the aim of the Gordon Research Conference on Crystal Growth & Assembly is to bring together leading scientists from these different backgrounds to stimulate cross-fertilization. To promote broader impact, the format of the meeting emphasizes interaction with and active participation of young scientists, i.e., students and post-docs, to educate a new generation of researchers that will have to meet future materials challenges in a changing world where (some) resources become increasingly scarce. NSF's Solid State and Materials Chemistry Program and the Condensed Matter and Materials Theory Program, both in the Division of Materials Research, support stipends for registration fee and/or travel support for some early-career participants at this conference because of its relevance to their respective programmatic scope. Technical SummaryThe Crystal Growth and Assembly Gordon Research Conference and Seminar are dedicated to the knowledge and understanding of the fundamental atomic and nanoscale physics and chemistry that are central to the nucleation and growth of crystals, as well as their assembly into ordered materials for a wide array of technologies. Such knowledge is needed to develop advanced materials for a diverse range of applications. The 2023 GRC conference has a particular focus on the integration of theory and experiment to predict and understand crystal growth and assembly. This conference, with support from NSF's Solid State and Materials Chemistry Program and the Condensed Matter and Materials Theory Program, both in the Division of Materials Research, gathers leading scientists representing the major areas in crystallization and assembly, and brings them into contact with each other and, more importantly, with the next generation of researchers to promote broader outreach within the crystal growth community. With respect to this larger goal, the meeting seeks to provide a common language for our diverse student body; to raise the comfort-level of our student/postdoc participants; and, through these efforts, to develop a tightly woven community held together by a common interest in the principles of materials assembly. The accompanying Gordon Research Seminar that is dedicated to and organized by graduate students and post-doctoral researchers aids in the active participation of this new generation of scientists.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.
