项目摘要

This grant provides funding for a delegation consisting of researchers from the University of Maryland, College Park, Purdue University and Harvard University to attend the 2011 International Conference on Noncontact Atomic Force Microscopy (NC-AFM) to take place in Lindau, Germany. The delegation consists mostly of graduate students and junior researchers. Additionally, it includes two members of the provisionally approved 2013 NC-AFM Conference Organization Committee, who will be updating and seeking final approval from the Conference Steering Committee on the proposed conference plan to be carried out in 2013 in Washington D.C.The delegation will have the opportunity to learn from and interact with the most prominent researchers in the field of NC-AFM, most of which reside in Europe and Japan. One of the most relevant conference topics to be presented (by others) is the nascent field of sub-atomic chemical force microscopy, which holds significant promise in the electronic structure probing of nanoscale surfaces. This is particularly important for energy-related applications, such as lithium ion diffusion tracking and enhanced fuel cell materials. Hosting the conference in the U.S. in 2013 will enable a large number of U.S. researchers to attend and acquire knowledge on the latest NC-AFM techniques, which will in turn help raise the level of interest in the U.S.

这笔赠款为由马里兰大学、帕克分校、普渡大学和哈佛大学的研究人员组成的代表团提供资金，以参加 2011 年在德国林道举行的非接触原子力显微镜 (NC-AFM) 国际会议。代表团主要由研究生和初级研究员组成。此外，它还包括临时批准的 2013 年 NC-AFM 会议组织委员会的两名成员，他们将更新拟于 2013 年在华盛顿特区举行的拟议会议计划并寻求会议指导委员会的最终批准。代表团将有有机会向 NC-AFM 领域最杰出的研究人员学习并与之互动，其中大多数来自欧洲和日本。（由其他人提出）最相关的会议主题之一是亚原子化学力显微镜的新兴领域，它在纳米级表面的电子结构探测中具有重大前景。这对于能源相关应用尤其重要，例如锂离子扩散跟踪和增强型燃料电池材料。 2013年在美国举办该会议将使大量美国研究人员参加并了解最新的NC-AFM技术，从而有助于提高美国的兴趣程度。
