A Joint U.S./Romanian NanoScience Workshop

这项授予中佛罗里达大学（UCF）的奖金将支持一个为期五天的有针对性的研讨会，以发展UCF与罗马尼亚雅西亚历山大·约翰·库萨大学罗马尼亚物理和先进技术应用研究中心（CARPATH）中心之间在纳米科学领域的未来合作。该奖项将支持美国博士后研究人员和学生以及教职员工的参与。中佛罗里达大学（UCF）纳米科学中心的教员正在进行一组项目，这些项目都需要计算建模，虽然UCF有很强的实验能力，但它的计算资源有限。另一方面，CARPATH具有较强的计算能力，但实验能力有限。因此，罗马尼亚/美国联合纳米科学研讨会旨在探索CARPATH的计算平台对UCF实验建模挑战的实用性。这将在为期5天的研讨会上进行回顾，涵盖广泛的主题，如有机薄膜光伏发展，磁性纳米颗粒设计的输运特性探索，预测纳米毒理学，多控制参数的滞后，纳米结构系统的高频响应，以及材料特性的多尺度模拟。预计这次研讨会将促进CARPATH和UCF纳米科学教师之间的长期合作互动，并将扩大他们现有项目的范围。

A Joint U.S. / Romanian NanoScience Workshop0827154This award to the University of Central Florida (UCF) will support a five-day targeted workshop to develop future collaborations in fields of nanoscience between UCF and the Romanian Center for Applied Research in Physics and Advanced TecHnologies (CARPATH) center at Alexander John Cuza University in Iasi, Romania. This award will support the participation of U.S. postdoctoral researchers and students as well as faculty members. The University of Central Florida's (UCF) NanoScience Center faculty members are pursuing a group of projects which all require computational modeling, and while UCF has strong experimental abilities, it has limited computational resources. CARPATH, on the other hand, has strong computational abilities, but limited experimental capabilities. Therefore a Joint Romanian/U.S. NanoScience Workshop is proposed to explore the utility of CARPATH's computational platform for modeling UCF's experimental modeling challenges. This will be reviewed in a 5 day workshop covering a wide array of topics such as organic thin film photovoltaic development, an exploration of the transport properties of magnetic nanoparticles design, predictive nanotoxicology, hysterisis with multiple control parameters, the high frequency response of nanostructured systems, and multiscale simulations of material properties. It is envisioned that this workshop will facilitate long term collaborative interactions between CARPATH and UCF's NanoScience faculty members and will extend the scope of their existing projects.
