Conference: Promoting Student Participation in the 15th International Symposium on Functional Pi Electron Systems

有机电子材料在特殊应用中使用明亮的染料状分子和聚合物，如高性能手机显示器和柔性太阳能电池。 新型和改进型有机电子材料的开发和应用引起了国际研究人员的广泛关注。 该社区还寻求将他们的见解应用于混合卤化铅钙钛矿材料和未来的应用，如生物电子学和神经形态计算。 他们每两年聚在一起，在功能π电子系统国际研讨会上分享他们的成就。 该系列研讨会的第15次化身（FPi15）将于2023年夏天在北卡罗来纳州的罗利举行。 该场地是研究生研究人员在国际社会中建立网络的绝佳机会。 这笔资金为参加FPi15研讨会的不同研究生提供旅行支持，从而促进了该领域充满活力和包容性的未来。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

Organic electronic materials use brilliant dye-like molecules and polymers in special applications such as high performance cellphone displays and flexible solar cells. The development and application of new and improved organic electronic materials occupies the attention of a large community of international researchers. This community also seeks to adapt their insights to hybrid lead halide perovskite materials and future applications like bioelectronics and neuromorphic computing. They come together once every two years to share their accomplishments at the International Symposium on Functional Pi Electron Systems. The 15th incarnation of this symposium series (FPi15) will be held in the summer of 2023 in Raleigh, North Carolina. The venue is an excellent opportunity for graduate student researchers to network within the international community. This funding provides travel support for diverse graduate student participation in the FPi15 symposium and thus promotes a vibrant and inclusive future for the field.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.
