12th International Conference on Desorption Induced by Electronic Transitions (DIET XII); Spring 2009, Pine Mountain, GA

分析和表面化学(ASC)计划将支持将于2009年4月19日至23日在佐治亚州松树山举行的电子跃迁(DIEW)引起的解吸国际研讨会。研讨会由佐治亚理工学院的托马斯·奥兰多教授和杜兰大学的乌里克·迪博尔德教授共同主持。它将把物理学家、化学家、材料科学家、行星科学家和生物学家聚集在一起，讨论电子跃迁引起的解吸和表面动力学研究的最新理论和实验进展。这些事件在光转换和光伏、器件材料的纳米制造、辐射诱导的表面改变和新的表面光谱技术的发展中具有重要意义，这些在材料科学和生物学中都是有用的。研讨会将纪念已故的Theodore Madey教授，他是研究表面物理/化学和饮食过程的先驱。该奖项将使40名本科生、研究生和博士后研究员参加计划中的讲习班，其中许多人来自代表性不足的群体。

The Analytical and Surface Chemistry (ASC) program will support an international workshop on Desorption Induced by Electronic Transitions (DIET), which will convene on April 19-23, 2009 in Pine Mountain, GA. The workshop is co-chaired by Prof. Thomas Orlando of Georgia Institute of Technology and Prof. Ulrike Diebold of Tulane University. It will bring together physicists, chemists, material scientists, planetary scientists and biologists to address recent theoretical and experimental advances in the study of desorption and surface dynamics induced by electronic transitions. These events are important in photo conversion and photovoltaics, nano-scale fabrication of device materials, radiation induced alteration of surfaces and the development of novel surface spectroscopic techniques, which are useful in material science and biology. The workshop will be in honor of the late Prof. Theodore Madey, a pioneer in the study of surface physics/chemistry and DIET processes. The award will enable the participation of 40 undergraduate students, graduate students and postdoctoral fellows of whom many are from under represented groups, in the planned workshop.
