53rd International Field Emission Society (IFES) Conference and Pre-meeting Tutorial; University of Alabama, Tuscaloosa, AL; May 2012

技术概要：场发射和场蒸发行为提供了几种技术相关应用和表征技术的基础物理学。 场蒸发或发射名义上需要一个尖锐的点，通常直径为几十纳米，其中几千伏就足以使尖端发射电子或蒸发离子，这取决于电位。 现代显微镜和材料表征技术的许多应用和发展都依赖于这些现象。 为了促进对这些和其他相关主题的技术讨论，亚拉巴马大学将主办第53届国际场致发射学会（IFES）会议和会前研讨会。非技术性总结：亚拉巴马大学将主办第53届国际场致发射学会（IFES）会议和会前研讨会，以解决先进材料研究中场致发射和场蒸发的理论和实际应用方面的培训和知识传播。

TECHNICAL SUMMARY:Field emission and field evaporation behavior provides the underpinning physics of several technically relevant applications and characterization techniques. Field evaporation or emission nominally requires a sharp point, typically of the diameter of a tens of nanometers, where a few thousand volts is sufficient for the tip to either emit electrons or evaporate ions, depending on the potential. Many applications and developments in modern microscopy and materials characterization techniques depend upon these phenomena. To stimulate technical discussions on these and other relevant topics, The University of Alabama will host The 53rd International Field Emission Society (IFES) Conference and Pre-meeting Tutorial.NON-TECHNICAL SUMMARY:The University of Alabama will host The 53rd International Field Emission Society (IFES) Conference and Pre-meeting Tutorial to address training and knowledge dissemination in the theory and practical use of field emission and field evaporation for advanced materials research.
