Travel: Participant support to attend the 8th Spin Mechanics workshop being held in Portland, Oregon on August 5-8, 2024

这项学生支持将使美国研究生和博士后学者能够参加在俄勒冈州波特兰举行的第8届自旋力学研讨会。该国际会议汇集了领先的研究人员，讨论将磁性（从电子的“自旋”）耦合到机械运动或变形的现象的物理学和工程学的最新发展。该研讨会此前曾在日本、德国、加拿大和法国举办，此次将首次在美国举办。这是一个独特的机会，为年轻的美国科学家介绍他们的工作，在一个轻松和合议的气氛中，在他们的领域的国际领导人，并开始建立一个网络的同事在研究界。这一领域的研究是一项全球性的奋进，在欧洲，亚洲和加拿大有非常强大的政府支持的研究集群。美国研究人员参加研讨会将提高国内在这一研究领域的竞争力和领导力，并促进国际合作。 “自旋力学”研究材料和器件中磁自旋和机械自由度之间的耦合。它代表了物理学和工程学交叉的前沿领域，将在下一代自旋电子学和量子计算设备的开发中发挥关键作用。特别是在量子计算和通信的新兴领域，理解和利用自旋态，光子和声子之间的相互作用是至关重要的。技术主题包括，磁振子-声子耦合（或自旋波/声波相互作用）、磁性的声学操纵、声学的磁性控制、通过机械转换的量子自旋状态的控制或读出、磁弹性材料和器件、应变介导的合成多铁性结构和器件、纳米机械系统中自旋上的扭矩和力、自旋热电子学、腔磁力学、该奖项反映了NSF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。

This student support will enable U.S. graduate students and post-doctoral scholars to participate in the 8th Spin Mechanics workshop in Portland, Oregon. The international conference brings together leading researchers to discuss the latest developments in the physics and engineering of phenomena which couple magnetism (from the “spin” of electrons) to mechanical movement or deformation. The workshop, which has previously been held in Japan, Germany, Canada, and France, will take place in the US for the first time. It is a unique opportunity for young US-based scientists to present their work to international leaders in their field in a relaxed and collegial atmosphere and to begin establishing a network of colleagues in the research community. Research in this field is a global endeavor with very strong, government-supported research clusters in Europe, Asia, and Canada. The participation of US-based researchers in the workshop will enhance domestic competitiveness and leadership in this research area and promote international collaborations. “Spin mechanics” examines the coupling between the magnetic spin and mechanical degrees of freedom in materials and devices. It represents a cutting-edge field at the intersection of physics and engineering that will play a pivotal role in the development of next-generation of devices for spintronics and quantum computing. Particularly in the emerging field of quantum computation and communication, understanding and exploiting the interactions between spin states, photons and phonons is of fundamental importance. Technical topics include, magnon-phonon coupling (or spin-wave / acoustic-wave interaction), acoustic manipulation of magnetism, magnetic control of acoustics, control or readout of quantum spin states by mechanical transduction, magneto-elastic materials and devices, strain-mediated synthetic multiferroic structures and devices, torques and forces on spins in nanomechanical systems, spin-caloritronics, cavity magnomechanics, micro- or nano-mechanical magnetic sensing, measurement or imaging, and spins in non-inertial reference frames.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.
