This award provides participant support for attendees of the 7th International Conference on Advanced Nanoparticle Generation and Excitation by Lasers in Liquids (ANGEL); Charlottesville, Virginia; 26-31 May 2024. The conference focuses on new research and development activities in laser-based nanoparticle synthesis for applications in clean energy, medicine, and advanced manufacturing. Students, faculty, and researchers from industry present their latest research results on laser-based synthesis of nanoparticles in oral and poster sessions. The conference impacts the advanced manufacturing and broader engineering communities. Priority is given to student and young faculty participants, particularly female participants and those who belong to minority groups underrepresented in science and engineering. This approach promotes diverse participation at the conference, in the short term, and in STEM fields, in the long term. This award benefits the nation through the education of a skilled and diverse manufacturing workforce, which is better prepared to provide transformative solutions to the challenges in their chosen fields. The conference plays an important role in supporting and sustaining the important field of nanoparticles and nanomaterials, which are important components in energy, medicine, microelectronics, and quantum research. This conference is timely because of the increase in global demand for high quality, tunable nanomaterials, and nanoparticles.This participant support is expected to benefit the students' professional, scientific, and technical development. Attendance at the conference gives the students and faculty a broader view of nanoparticle synthesis, its fundamentals, advanced manufacturing, advanced characterization, and applications. The conference is attended by U.S. and international experts and researchers, thus a variety of perspectives are presented and discussed. The conference is an opportunity for participants to showcase their scientific accomplishments, interact with peers and colleagues in academia, government laboratories and industry, and extend their network within the broad materials processing and advanced manufacturing communities. Attendees learn about state-of-the-art research in laser synthesis and processing of colloidal nanoparticles, biomedical applications of laser-nanoparticle interactions, advanced modeling and experimental probing of laser-nanoparticle interactions at the limits of spatial and time resolution, and other emerging topics in the general area of laser-materials interactions in liquids via access to several technical and professional development talks by leading domestic and international speakers. Students and young faculty enhance their communication skills through oral and poster presentations and in-depth discussions of their work with peers in their technical areas. This interactive experience significantly broadens student education, increases their enthusiasm for their research topic, acquaints them with expectations for scientific careers, and exposes them to new approaches for innovative research.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.

该奖项为第七届液体中激光产生和激发高级纳米粒子国际会议（ANGEL）的与会者提供支持；弗吉尼亚州夏洛茨维尔； 2024 年 5 月 26-31 日。会议重点关注基于激光的纳米粒子合成在清洁能源、医学和先进制造领域的应用的新研发活动。来自工业界的学生、教师和研究人员在口头和海报会议上展示了他们关于纳米粒子激光合成的最新研究成果。该会议影响先进制造和更广泛的工程界。优先考虑学生和年轻教师参与者，特别是女性参与者和属于科学和工程领域代表性不足的少数群体的参与者。这种方法在短期内促进了会议的多元化参与，从长远来看则促进了 STEM 领域的多元化参与。该奖项通过对技术熟练且多元化的制造业劳动力的教育使国家受益，这些劳动力能够更好地为应对所选领域的挑战提供变革性解决方案。该会议在支持和维持纳米粒子和纳米材料这一重要领域发挥着重要作用，纳米粒子和纳米材料是能源、医学、微电子和量子研究的重要组成部分。这次会议恰逢其时，因为全球对高质量、可调谐纳米材料和纳米颗粒的需求不断增加。参与者的支持预计将有利于学生的专业、科学和技术发展。参加会议使学生和教师对纳米粒子合成、其基础知识、先进制造、先进表征和应用有了更广泛的了解。此次会议有美国和国际专家和研究人员参加，因此提出和讨论了各种观点。此次会议为与会者提供了展示其科学成就、与学术界、政府实验室和工业界的同行和同事互动以及在广泛的材料加工和先进制造领域扩展其网络的机会。与会者了解激光合成和胶体纳米颗粒加工的最先进研究、激光-纳米颗粒相互作用的生物医学应用、在空间和时间分辨率极限下激光-纳米颗粒相互作用的高级建模和实验探测，以及其他新兴技术通过参加国内和国际领先演讲者的多次技术和专业发展讲座，了解液体中激光与材料相互作用的一般领域的主题。学生和年轻教师通过口头和海报演示以及与技术领域的同行深入讨论他们的工作来提高他们的沟通技巧。这种互动体验极大地拓宽了学生的教育范围，提高了他们对研究课题的热情，让他们了解了对科学职业的期望，并让他们接触到创新研究的新方法。该奖项反映了 NSF 的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准。
