The ESF workshop will bring together a number of experts in molecular nanowires and quantum dots, nanoscale engineering and theorists in the field of strongly correlated electrons and polarons from 11 European countries working in universities and research laboratories. Topics for discussion will include molecular nanoobjects, polarons on nanoscale, low-dimensional conductors, strongly-correlated electrons in nanoobjects, metal-insulator transitions and size quantizations, and mesoscopic quantum theory including first-principle simulations. The workshop is planned as a unique meeting of European researches working in experimental nano-physics, quantum chemistry and nano-engineering, and theorists studying strongly-correlated electrons and polarons. The workshop will also mark the centenary of the birth of Sir Nevill Francis Mott (The Nobel Laureate), whose research on metal-insulator transitions, polarons and amorphous conductors has tremendous impact on our current understanding of strongly-correlated quantum systems. The EPSRC award will make the ESF workshop more relevant to the UK research community and will better position Loughborough and other UK Universities to secure research funding from Europe.

ESF研讨会将汇集来自11个欧洲国家的大学和研究实验室的分子纳米线和量子点专家、纳米工程以及强相关电子和极化子领域的理论家。讨论的主题将包括分子纳米物体、纳米尺度的极化子、低维导体、纳米物体中的强相关电子、金属-绝缘体转变和尺寸量子化，以及包括第一原理模拟在内的介观量子理论。该研讨会计划作为欧洲实验纳米物理学、量子化学和纳米工程研究人员以及研究强相关电子和极化子的理论家的一次独特会议。该研讨会还将纪念内维尔·弗朗西斯·莫特爵士（诺贝尔奖获得者）诞辰一百周年，他对金属-绝缘体转变、极化子和非晶导体的研究对我们目前对强相关量子系统的理解产生了巨大影响。 EPSRC 奖项将使 ESF 研讨会与英国研究界更加相关，并将更好地帮助拉夫堡大学和其他英国大学获得欧洲的研究经费。
