Fundamentals of Quantum Materials Winter School and Workshop

非技术性：量子材料冬季学校的基础致力于多样性和包容性，并一直积极推动代表不足的少数族裔参与量子材料研究。量子材料基础冬季学校也积极开展公众宣传活动，与公众分享学习材料。这次研讨会将有助于确保量子材料作为研究企业的长期活力，使这些活动能够继续下去。研讨会的组织者将努力在参与者中纳入一系列良好的职业阶段和背景。这次研讨会还将加强物理科学界内部以及量子材料基础冬季学校与之合作的伙伴之间的联系。技术：通过将来自美国的顶尖专家与包括物理学家、化学家和材料科学家在内的跨学科和多样化的人群聚集在一起，参与者获得了如何计划和执行与量子材料研究相关的合成的基本功能知识。此外，该研讨会为参与者提供了一种独特的体验，让他们在与同行建立联系的同时与该领域的一些顶尖研究人员进行互动。这所学校的结构包括上午由美国十位顶尖的执业量子材料科学家进行的教学讲座，下午专门在马里兰大学纳米物理和先进材料中心的实验室进行实践演示。该学院还包括参观国家标准与技术研究所和由资深科学家参加的海报会议。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

Nontechnical:The Fundamentals of Quantum Materials Winter School is committed to diversity and inclusion, and has been proactive in promoting the participation of underrepresented minorities in Quantum Materials research. Fundamentals of Quantum Materials Winter School, also has an active public outreach effort to share learning materials with members of the public. This workshop will help ensure long-term vigor of Quantum Materials as a research enterprise to allow those activities to continue. The workshop organizers will strive to include a good range of career stages and backgrounds among the participants. This workshop will also strengthen connections within physical science communities, as well as within partners with whom the Fundamentals of Quantum Materials Winter School collaborates. Technical:By bringing together leading experts from the U.S. with an interdisciplinary and diverse crowd including physicists, chemists, and materials scientists, participants gain a basic functional knowledge of how to plan and carry out synthesis relevant to the study of quantum materials. In addition, this workshop facilitates a unique experience for participants to interact with some of the top researchers in the field while networking with fellow peers. The structure of the school includes mornings of pedagogical lectures by ten of the nation's top practicing quantum materials scientists, with afternoons devoted to practical demonstrations in laboratories in the University of Maryland's Center for Nanophysics and Advanced Materials. The school also includes a visit to the National Institute of Standards and Technology and a poster session attended by senior scientists.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
