Solid State Chemistry of Inorganic Materials IX

技术总结专题讨论会题为？无机材料固体化学将在2013年秋季材料研究学会研讨会在波士顿举行，马萨诸塞州和部分资助的固态和材料化学计划在材料研究部门在NSF。 固态化学是一个跨学科的领域，它吸引了不同的科学家，如化学家，凝聚态物理学家，材料科学家，电气，化学和机械工程师，陶瓷，冶金和矿物学/地质学。固态化学包括新材料的合成，新形式材料的制备（纳米晶体，薄膜异质结构，多孔材料和复合材料），重点是成分，结构和性能之间的关系，以及尖端表征方法的应用。固态化学的范围和重要性不仅随着新材料的发现而增长，而且还通过制备和研究它们的技术的进步以及对结构和性质的高级计算预测而增长。 本次研讨会，在一个既定的两年期系列的第九次，将提供一个国际跨学科论坛的介绍和讨论的最新进展，在固态化学的无机材料及其对商业应用的影响。 非技术总结本次研讨会将为所有年龄段的科学家和工程师提供一个充满活力的场所，包括本科生和研究生以及博士后研究员，有机会展示他们的工作。我们有一个广泛的科学家与23个受邀发言？其中5人来自国家实验室，5人是初级教员，9人是妇女。 将有来自北美以及欧洲和亚洲的大量出席和参与。鉴于固态化学的跨学科性质，MRS会议是这样一个研讨会非常受欢迎的场所。

TECHNICAL SUMMARYThe symposium entitled ?Solid Stat Chemistry of Inorganic Materials IX? will be held at the 2013 Fall Materials Research Society Symposium in Boston, MA and is partly funded by the Solid State and Materials Chemistry Program within Division of Materials Research at NSF. Solid-state chemistry is an interdisciplinary field, which draws from a diverse group of scientists such as chemists, condensed-matter physicists, material scientists, electrical, chemical and mechanical engineers, ceramics, metallurgy, and mineralogy/geology. Solid-state chemistry encompasses the synthesis of new materials, preparation of materials in new forms (nanocrystalline, thin film heterostructures, porous materials, and composites), with emphasis on the relationships between composition, structure and properties, as well as the application of cutting edge characterization methods. The scope and importance of solid-state chemistry has grown not only with the discovery of new materials, but also through the advancement of techniques for preparing and studying them, and in advanced computational predictions for structures and properties. This symposium, the ninth in an established biennial series, will provide an international interdisciplinary forum for the presentation and discussion of recent advances in the solid-state chemistry of inorganic materials and their impact on commercial applications. NON TECHNICAL SUMMARYThis symposium will provide a dynamic venue for scientists and engineers from all ages, including undergraduate and graduate students as well as postdoctoral fellows, the opportunity to present there work. We have a broad cross-section of scientists with the 23 invited speakers ? five are from a national laboratory, five are junior faculty, and nine are women. There will be strong attendance and participation from North America as well as Europe and Asia. Given the interdisciplinary nature of solid-state chemistry the MRS meeting is an extremely popular venue for such a symposium.
