Conference Symposium: "Organic Thin Films for Photonic Applications"; Washington, DC; August 20-25, 2000.

该奖项为将于2000年8月20-25日在华盛顿举行的美国光学学会全国会议上举行的题为“用于光子应用的有机薄膜”的研讨会提供部分支持。组织者希望拥有广泛的国际代表性，并希望得到公认的领导人和这一领域有前途的新人的参与。一个特别的努力是支持和邀请初级教师成为受邀演讲者，并促进研究生和博士后的贡献。研讨会的主要赞助商是美国化学学会(ACS)高分子材料科学与工程分会(PMSE)，次级赞助商是美国化学学会高分子化学分会(POLY)和美国光学学会(OSA)。这次研讨会的主要目的是宣传具有新颖和有用的光学和电子性能的有机和聚合物材料的科学和技术。本次研讨会旨在将有机化学家、聚合物科学家、光学物理学家和器件专家聚集在一起，讨论材料科学能力和光电器件的要求，以便他们的共同努力可能会带来新的进展。

This award provides partial support for the symposium entitled "Organic Thin Films for Photonic Applications" to be held at the ACS National Meeting, Washington, D.C., August 20-25, 2000. The organizers wish to have broad international representation and to have participation by both acknowledged leaders and promising newcomers to this field. A special effort is made to support and include junior faculty amongst the invited speakers and to promote contributions from graduate students and postdocs.%%%The primary sponsor of the sponsor of the symposium is the Division of Polymeric Materials Science & Engineering (PMSE) of the American Chemical Society (ACS) with secondary sponsorship by the Division of Polymer Chemistry (POLY) of the SCS and the Optical Society of America (OSA). The principal objective of this symposium is to promulgate the science and technology of organic and polymeric materials with novel and useful optical and electronic properties. This symposium is designed to bring together organic chemists, polymer scientists, optical physicists and device specialists to discuss materials science capabilities and photonic and optoelectronic device requirements so that their combined efforts may lead to new advances.
