PASI on Science and Technology at the Nanometer Scale; Alajuela, Costa Rica, 21-30 June 2001

[00:863590]这项由美国国家科学基金会和美国能源部联合支持的泛美高级研究所奖将包括一系列关于纳米尺度物理和技术的讲座和研究互动。该课程将于2001年6月21日至30日在哥斯达黎加的阿拉胡亚塔举行。PASI的讲师将从一个由该领域顶尖研究人员组成的国际咨询委员会中选出，并将来自非洲大陆的许多国家和机构。由于大多数纳米尺度的研究跨越了传统的学科界限，组织者选择了五个主要领域的主题：自组织半导体纳米结构；碳纳米管、巴基球、分子、材料和电子传输；磁性纳米结构;低维系统的结构与外延；以及低维系统的理论：输运、光学性质和相关/相互作用效应。该课程将结合讲座和海报会议，由初级和其他参与者介绍研究和结果，以促进具体内容的互动。这些互动应该有助于为今后的合作奠定基础。

0086359UlloaThis Pan-American Advanced Institutes award, jointly supported by the NSF and the Department of Energy (DOE), will consist of a series of lectures and research interactions on physics and technology at the nanometer scale. The course will be held in Alajueata, Costa Rica June 21-30, 2001. Lecturers for the PASI will be selected from an international advisory committee consisting of top researchers in the area and will come from a broad selection of countries and institutions in the continent. Because most of the research at the nanoscale crosses traditional disciplinary boundaries, the organizers have chosen to cover topics in five major areas: self-organized semiconductor nanostructures; carbon nanotubes, buckyballs, and molecules, materials and electronic transport; magnetic nanostructures; structure and epitaxy of low-dimensional systems; and theory of low-dimensional systems: transport, optical properties, and correlation/interaction effects. The course will combine lectures with poster sessions for the presentation of research studies and results by junior and other participants in order to foster content-specific interactions. These interactions should be helpful in laying the groundwork for future collaborations.
