The Electronic Materials Conference (EMC) is a premier annual forum for the presentation and dissemination of research focused on the preparation, growth, characterization, and use of electronic materials. EMC talks, a majority of which are given by students, present cutting-edge research in a wide range of fields, including solar energy materials, metamaterials and plasmonics, quantum structures, electrical and optical characterization techniques, wide bandgap and narrow bandgap materials, nanocomposites, 2D materials, and many others. The design, growth and synthesis, development, and characterization of electronic materials are central to a wide range of scientific fields, from quantum sensing, communication, and computation to renewable energy, optical communication and sensing, data storage, power systems, and nano-electronics. EMC provides a unique opportunity for researchers from academia, government labs, and industry to meet and share the latest cutting-edge results across these broad range of fields. While currently drawing from a broad range of disciplines and institutions, EMC is looking to broaden participation of scientists and engineers from minority serving institutions (MSIs), including historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs). This proposal aims to broaden participation in the Electronic Materials Conference by forging close, sustainable ties with MSIs, through the NSF Partnerships for Research and Education in Materials (PREM) program, in order to build a more diverse EMC.The project is designed to broaden participation in EMC by building a sustainable relationship between EMC and PREM, as well as electronic materials research groups at MSIs. The proposed effort will: (i) increase the breadth of research presented at EMC, providing opportunities for dissemination of research results from MSIs at an impactful forum for electronic materials research, (ii) offer opportunities for networking and the building of collaborative research efforts between MSI researchers and EMC attendees, fostering new research efforts and directions, and (iii) strengthen the EMC by broadening participation in the elected EMC organizing committee and pool of invited organizers. The proposed effort will focus on bringing researchers from MSIs into the EMC fold, both as attendees and presenters, but also as invited organizers and members of the organizing committee. There will also be a focus on reaching out to undergraduate researchers at MSIs, in order to expose these students to a broad range of cutting-edge materials research, inspire these students to continue their education at the graduate level, and thus strengthen the STEM pipeline for under-represented populations. The program will reimburse EMC registration fees for attendees and participants from MSIs and PREM institutions and will look to support travel and lodging expenses for ‘teams’ of EMC attendees from these institutions. Success will be measured by tracking attendance and participation by MSI and PREM attendees, as well as with a post-conference survey to determine adjustments to EMC that will further help to broaden participation.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.

电子材料会议（EMC）是一个主要的年度论坛，用于介绍和传播有关电子材料的制备，增长，表征和使用的研究。 EMC谈话是由学生提供的，其中大多数是由太阳能材料，超材料，超材料和血浆，量子结构，电气和光学表征技术，宽带盖和狭窄的bandgap材料，纳米复合材料，2D材料等。电子材料的设计，生长和综合，发展和表征对于从量子传感，通信和计算到可再生能源，光学通信和传感，数据存储，动力系统和纳米电子学的广泛科学领域至关重要。 EMC为来自学术界，政府实验室和行业的研究人员提供了一个独特的机会，可以在这些广泛的领域相遇和分享最新的尖端结果。尽管目前从广泛的学科和机构中汲取灵感，但EMC希望扩大少数派服务机构（MSIS）的科学家和工程师的参与，包括历史上是黑人学院和大学（HBCUS）。该建议旨在通过NSF的材料研究和教育伙伴关系（PERM）计划忘记与MSIS的紧密，可持续的联系，以扩大对电子材料会议的参与，以构建更高的潜水EMC。该项目旨在通过在EMC和Prem和Prem以及MSIS的EMC材料组之间建立可持续的关系来扩大EMC的参与。提出的努力将：（i）增加在EMC上提出的研究的广度，为在有影响力的电子材料研究论坛上传播MSIS的研究结果的机会，（II）为网络和MSI研究人员与EMC参与者之间的建立提供了机会，并促进了EMC的参与者，并促进了EMC的委员会和EMC的竞争，并促进了EMC的委员会和EMC竞争EMC和EMC的委员会，并促进了EMC的新委员会。拟议的努力将着重于将MSI的研究人员带入EMC折叠，无论是与会者和演示者，但作为邀请的组织者和组织成员，还将重点关注MSIS的本科研究人员，以使这些学生曝光这些学生在毕业生的范围内继续进行这些学生的教育范围，从而使他们的教育范围很广，从而使STEM级别保持了启动，并能够在STEM范围内进行启动。该计划将为来自MSIS和PREM机构的与会者和参与者报销EMC注册费，并希望支持这些机构的EMC与会者“团队”的旅行和住宿费用。成功将通过跟踪MSI和预先参与者的出勤和参与以及会议后的调查来衡量成功，以确定对EMC的调整，这将进一步有助于扩大参与的参与。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并被认为是通过基金会的知识分子优点和更广泛的影响审查标准来通过评估来通过评估来获得的支持。
