What principles govern the organization of electrons in a crystalline solid? Can we control the organization and dynamics of electrons? How thin can we make a superconductor and still retain its superconducting properties? Can superconductivity emerge at the nanoscale interface between two different crystals? Can light-matter interaction lead to new optically-induced electronic states in solids? Can these states lead to new types of photovoltaics? Making progress on such fundamental issues is the key to synthesizing nanoscale devices, and creating new energy and communication technologies, both of which are expected to be of immense benefit to Canada.

哪些原理控制着晶体固体中电子的组织？我们可以控制电子的组织和动态吗？我们可以制造超导体并仍然保留其超导性能？可以在两个不同晶体之间的纳米级界面上出现超导性吗？轻度 - 互动可以导致固体中新的光学诱导的电子状态吗？这些状态可以导致新型的光伏类型吗？在此类基本问题上取得进展是综合纳米级设备，并创造新的能源和通信技术的关键，这两者都预计对加拿大带来了巨大的好处。
