Oise-0527227 Sinova，Jairo(德克萨斯农工研究基金会)，半导体纳米自旋电子学研讨会：自旋霍尔效应及相关问题摘要德克萨斯农工机械研究基金会的Jairo Sinova博士的提案申请资金，用于将于2005年8月在韩国浦项科技大学亚太理论物理中心(APCTP)举办的半导体纳米自旋电子学：自旋霍尔效应及相关问题研讨会。七名初级研究人员和三名高级研究人员需要国家科学基金会的资金支持他们参加研讨会。研究人员包括几名来自未被充分代表的种族、民族或性别群体的科学家。研讨会由来自美国、韩国、日本和香港的合作者组织，将提供自旋霍尔效应的概述，讨论理论研究最近的研究进展，并解决几个相关的争议。会议还将使西方科学家接触到亚洲研究人员在自旋电子学领域开展的广泛和值得注意的研究，以启动和巩固两个科学界之间的直接合作。

OISE-0527227Sinova, Jairo (Texas A&M Research Foundation), Workshop on Semiconductor Nano-Spintronics: Spin-Hall Effect and Related Issues ABSTRACTThe proposal by Dr. Jairo Sinova of Texas A&M Research Foundation requests funds for a Workshop on Semiconductor Nano-Spintronics: Spin-Hall Effect and Related Issues, to be held at the Asian Pacific Center for Theoretical Physics (APCTP) in Pohang University of Science and Technology in Korea in August 2005. NSF funds are requested to support participation in the workshop by seven junior researchers and three senior researchers. The researchers include several scientists from underrepresented racial, ethnic or gender groups. The workshop, organized by a team of collaborators from the U.S., Korea, Japan and Hong Kong, will provide an overview of the spin-Hall effect, discuss theoretical studies recent research progress and address several related controversies. The meeting will also expose Western scientists to the extensive and noteworthy research being carried out by Asian researchers in the spintronics field in order to initiate and solidify direct collaborations between the two scientific communities.
