9910017KamienThis three-year award for U.S.-France collaboration in materials research involves Randall D. Kamien, a postdoctoral researcher and graduate students at the University of Pennsylvania and Brigitte Pansu and her students at the University of Paris, South. The investigators propose to study liquid crystalline phases and phase transitions, in particular, a state of matter known as blue phases with smectic order. Theorists and experimentalists are studying blue smectic phases for their dramatic structure, high degree of structural order, and mechanical properties. The collaboration brings together U.S. theorists with French experimentalists. It will focus on the structure and properties of blue phases and the smectic structure. New phases of matter, including smectic blue phases, are important for their use as templates for nano- and micro-fabrication of technologically interesting materials, including those with optoelectronic properties.This award represents the U.S. side of a joint proposal to the NSF and the French National Center for Scientific Research (CNRS). NSF will cover travel funds and living expenses for the U.S. investigators, postdoctoral researcher, and graduate students. The CNRS will support the visits of the French researchers to the United States.

9910017KamientHis在美国材料研究中合作三年奖涉及宾夕法尼亚大学的博士后研究员兼研究生Randall D. Kamien，Brigitte Pansu及其学生在南部的巴黎大学。 研究人员建议研究液晶相和相变的液体阶段，尤其是一种称为近晶阶蓝相的物质。 理论家和实验者正在研究其戏剧性结构，高度结构秩序和机械性能的蓝色近晶相。 该合作将美国理论家与法国实验家汇集在一起​​。 它将集中于蓝相和近晶结构的结构和特性。 物质的新阶段，包括绿色阶段，对于它们用作技术有趣材料的纳米和微型制作的模板，包括具有光电特性的材料。这代表了NSF和NSF的联合提案的美国一方，以及法国国家科学研究中心（CNRS）。 NSF将为美国调查人员，博士后研究人员和研究生提供旅行资金和生活费用。 中枢神经系统将支持法国研究人员对美国的访问。
