Taiwan - AFOSR Nanoscience Initiative Status

Abstract

The goal of the conference was to establish mutually beneficial scientific interactions between researchers in Taiwan and AFRL scientists. It was to foster basic research innovation and interactions between scientists and enhance future USAF capabilities through support of Air Force fundamental nanoscience research efforts. The definition of USAF Nanoscience is to work at the atomic, molecular and supramolecular levels, in the length scale of approximately 1-100 nm in range; undertand novel phenomena, properties and functions that occur on nm length scales; manipulate matter at the nanoscale to control those properties and functions; and achieve macroscale functionality based on properties at the nonoscale.
