Tenth U.S.-Japan Joint Seminar on Nanoscale Transport Phenomena
Abstract
Project AbstractApproved for Public ReleaseTenth U.S.-Japan Joint Seminar on Nanoscale Transport PhenomenaUS OrganizersRenkun Chen (UCSD)Austin Minnich (Caltech)Japanese OrganizersGota Kikugawa (Tohoku University)Junichiro Shiomi (University of Tokyo)This proposal seeks partial funding for the Tenth U.S.-Japan Joint Seminar on Nanoscale Transport Phenomena. This 3 day seminar will be held inSan Diego, CA from July 16-19, 2023. In previous years, this seminar has been regarded as one of the premiere meetings in thermal science [1, 8]. The seminar will provide an international forum for interdisciplinary discussions that identify and disseminate outstanding science and technology issues in the area of nanoscale thermophysics and energy conversion. Example topics to be discussedinclude: thermal transport in applications and devices, thermal transport in novel material systems, advanced instrumentation for probing thermal transport at small time or size scales, first principles calculations of thermal transport properties, radiative heattransport at the nanoscale, and phase-change heat transfer. The results will be disseminated to the greater thermal sciences community through articles in the international archival journal Nanoscale and Microscale Thermophysical Engineering that summarize the proceedings and offer perspectives on promising emergent research directions. Participants will be from academia, national laboratories, and industry spanning various levels of seniority (a list of confirmed participants is included within this proposal). We are requesting $9,600 to support approximately 50% of the costs for 10 attendees, with preference for women, unrepresented participants, and the early-career participants.
