NON-TECHNICAL DESCRIPITON: The goal of the 2017 Professional Development Workshop in Ceramics is to enhance the career development of the next generation of future leaders in ceramic materials research and education. The workshop focuses on seven early-career faculty who have recently been awarded NSF CAREER grants from the Ceramics Program in the Division of Materials Research, but the workshop activities have been structured to be of value to all participants as there is a desire to increase the scale and scope of this workshop over prior versions. The workshop is also open to other early-career faculty as well as interested post-doctoral associates, faculty-minded senior graduate students, and more senior faculty interested in mentoring the next generation. The activity is an intensive two-day workshop that brings together the two 2015 and five 2016 CAREER awardees with targeted panels of US-based and international experts from their chosen technical specialties in a forum that promotes professional discussions, mentoring and networking activities. The direct panel feedback will impact the research and training of the early career faculty; the broader exchange of best practices for training and teaching as well as the forging of new collaborative research opportunities and mentoring relationships will benefit all participants. These outcomes should provide a strong base of support that helps the CAREER awardees succeed in becoming outstanding researchers and educators in their chosen fields and will help to strengthen the broader ceramic materials research community. TECHNICAL DETAILS: The 2017 Professional Development Workshop in Ceramics focuses on seven technical topics to be presented by the seven participating CAREER awardees: 1) Multiscale visualization of electrochemical reactions via advanced in situ characterization techniques 2) Nano-architechtured and defect-driven electrode materials for rechargeable batteries, 3) Defect and interface effects on moving ferroelectric domain walls, 4) Core-shell nanowire structures of Li7La3Zr2O12 electrolytes, 5) Bifunctional materials that can serve as either battery anode or cathode, 6) Low-CO2 cements via fundamental reaction studies across multiple length and time scales, and 7) Off-valence substitution for valence control of dopant ions in laser ceramics. The respective early career faculty and the technical experts in their sub-specialties of ceramic materials research are leading the scientific discussions for the purpose of critically evaluating research plans, career development, and education efforts.

非技术描述：2017 年陶瓷专业发展研讨会的目标是促进陶瓷材料研究和教育领域下一代未来领导者的职业发展。该研讨会的重点是七名刚刚进入职业生涯的教师，他们最近获得了材料研究部陶瓷项目的 NSF 职业资助，但研讨会活动的结构对所有参与者都有价值，因为他们希望提高与之前版本相比，本次研讨会的规模和范围。该研讨会还向其他早期职业教师、感兴趣的博士后、有教师意识的高级研究生以及有兴趣指导下一代的高级教师开放。该活动是为期两天的密集研讨会，将两位 2015 年和五位 2016 年职业获奖者与来自他们所选择的技术专业的美国和国际专家组成的目标小组聚集在一起，在一个促进专业讨论、指导和网络活动的论坛上进行。小组的直接反馈将影响早期职业教师的研究和培训；更广泛地交流培训和教学的最佳做法以及建立新的合作研究机会和指导关系将使所有参与者受益。这些成果应该提供强有力的支持基础，帮助职业获奖者成功成为其所选领域的杰出研究人员和教育工作者，并将有助于加强更广泛的陶瓷材料研究社区。技术细节：2017 年陶瓷专业发展研讨会重点讨论七个技术主题，由七位参与的职业获奖者介绍：1) 通过先进的原位表征技术实现电化学反应的多尺度可视化 2) 纳米结构和缺陷驱动的电极材料可充电电池，3）移动铁电畴壁的缺陷和界面效应，4）Li7La3Zr2O12电解质的核壳纳米线结构， 5) 可用作电池阳极或阴极的双功能材料，6) 通过跨多个长度和时间尺度的基本反应研究实现低二氧化碳水泥，以及 7) 用于激光陶瓷中掺杂剂离子价态控制的非价态取代。各自陶瓷材料研究子专业的早期职业教师和技术专家正在主导科学讨论，目的是批判性地评估研究计划、职业发展和教育工作。
