Symposium on Solid State Chemistry-MARM 2003, Princeton, NJ, June 8-11

对固态化学的兴趣近年来经历了爆炸式增长，这是由于人们广泛认识到新材料的发现和研究所涉及的技术重要性和科学挑战，以及来自其他学科的科学家的涌入，他们看到了在这一领域进行令人兴奋的研究的机会。本次固态化学研讨会是为期一天的固态化学研讨会，作为美国化学学会中大西洋地区会议的一部分，将于2003年6月8日至11日在新泽西州普林斯顿举行。会议的目标是促进广泛的研究人员之间的合作和信息交流，这些研究人员对固态化学领域感兴趣，包括新的合成方法，晶体化学，电子和磁性，铁电和铁电，纳米材料，固态离子学和新材料。NSF的资金将用于支付学生、博士后和初级教师参加研讨会的费用。固态化学社区继续通过设计用于能源，电子和光子学的新材料对社会具有重要意义的技术进步产生直接影响，包括设计和构建新型“生物固体”，如溶胶-凝胶中的生物分子作为传感器材料。

Interest in solid state chemistry has undergone explosive growth in recent years due to the broadly based recognition of the technological importance and scientific challenges involved in the discovery and study of new materials, and due to the influx of scientists from other disciplines who see the opportunities for performing exciting research in this area. This Symposium on Solid State Chemistry is a one-day symposium on Solid-State Chemistry to be held as part of the Mid-Atlantic Regional Meeting of the American Chemical Society to be held in Princeton NJ June 8-11, 2003. The goal of the conference is to facilitate collaborations and information exchange across a broad spectrum of researchers with interests in solid-state chemistry areas that include novel synthetic methods, crystal chemistry, electronic and magnetic properties, dielectrics and ferroelectrics, nanomaterials, solid state ionics, and new materials. The NSF funds will be used to defray the expenses of students, post-docs, and junior faculty attending the symposium.%%% The Solid State Chemistry community continues to have direct impact on technological advances of high significance to society by designing new materials for energy, electronics and photonics, including the design and construction of novel 'biosolids' such as biomolecules in sol-gels as sensor materials.***
