U.S.-China Symposium on Advanced Ceramic Materials, Washington, D.C., September 1987

目标和与计划目标的相关性：这次先进陶瓷材料领域的联合研讨会将汇聚美国和中国的顶尖科学家，探索陶瓷材料的新发展，并为未来的合作研究确定共同感兴趣的领域。本次联合研讨会由位于大学园区的宾夕法尼亚州立大学埃里克·克罗斯和中国科学院化学室范东生主办，将通过促进中国和美国科学家在共同感兴趣和对两国有利的项目上的基础科学合作机会，支持美国中国合作科学计划的目标。建议的优点：本次研讨会将汇集陶瓷领域的顶尖专家，并将重点关注陶瓷材料研究的前沿课题。随着中国和美国科学家在氧化物陶瓷材料方面取得突破性进展，高温超导性能大幅提高，并认可中国在氧化物生长方面的领先努力，将两国科学家聚集在一起制定反映陶瓷研究前沿活动的联合项目是及时和重要的。资助：这是合作计划条款下的一项新的为期八个月的奖励。美方将负责中国参赛者的每日费用，而在美国，中国发生的一切费用将由中方负责。

Objectives and Relevance to Program Objectives: This joint seminar in the field of advanced ceramic materials will bring together top U.S. and Chinese scientists to explore new developments in ceramic materials and to define areas of common interest for future cooperative research. Organized by Eric Cross, Penn State University at University Park, and Van Donsheng, Chemistry Division, Chinese Academy of Sciences, this joint symposium will support the objectives of the U.S. China Program in Cooperative Science by promoting opportunities for cooperation in basic science between scientists of China and the U.S. on projects of mutual interest and benefit to both countries. Merit of Proposal: This symposium will bring together leading experts in the field of cermics and will focus on topics at the forefront of research in ceramic materials. As scientists in both China and the U.S. achieve breakthroughs in oxide ceramic materials with dramatic improvements in high temperature superconductivity, and in recognition of China's leading efforts in oxide growth, it is timely and important to bring together scientists in these two countries to define joint projects which reflect activity at the cutting edge of ceramics research. Funding: This is a new eight-month award under the terms of the cooperative program. The U.S. will be responsible for per diem costs of the Chinese participants while in the U.S. All costs incurred in China will be the responsibility of the Chinese side.
