Support of Scientific Symposium "Organic Thin Films for Photonic Applications"
Abstract
The proposal to the AFOSR 'Support of Scientific Symposium: Organic Thin Films for Photonic Applications' was prepared by Robert Twieg. The symposium transpired during the American Chemical Society National meeting in Washington, DC the week of August 20-25, 2000. Symposium events were held in the JW Marriott Motel from Sunday August 20 to Wednesday August 23. Robert Twieg was the principle organizer of this symposium. There were three co-organizers for the symposium but none of them were immediately involved in the preparation of this proposal or its execution. These individuals were: Dr. Robert Norwood (Photon-X, Inc., co-General Chair), Prof. Alex Jen (University of Washington, Program Chair), Prof. Randy Heflin (Virginia Tech, co-Program Chair). AFOSR support was used for the partial reimbursement of travel and registration expenses for participants who completed a form at the meeting requesting compensation and explaining their role in the symposium. Such support to participants is critical to draw accomplished participants from overseas, to support new faculty careers and also to support student participation in the meeting.
