The 1989 Spring Meeting of the Materials Research Society will be held at the Town and County Hotel in San Diego, with events spanning April 22-29. Meeting Chairs Robin Farrow, Dick Siegel and Angelica Stacy have developed a program of 16 technical symposia that reflect the continuing key role of materials science in the development of both mature and emerging technologies.Several new topics will reflect emerging areas, including materials for optical storage of information (Symposium F), ultrathin magnetic films (Symposium G), and materials problems of infrastructure (Symposium P). A special workshop will provide a technology update on diamond films (Symposium P) and will feature a joint session with Symposium H, Optical Materials: Processing and Science.Plenary speaker Linus Pauling, research professor at the Linus Pauling Institute of Science and Medicine, will discuss quasicrystals, materials whose atomic structure displays perfect five-fold symmetry, but whose atomic pattern is never exactly repeated as it would be in conventional crystals. During the Plenary Session MRS will also recognize graduate students who have made outstanding contributions as authors or co-authors of papers presented at the 1989 Spring Meeting.

Progresses in nonlinear optical materials research and laser pump source development have led to rapid advances in many areas of optical parametric device technology in recent years. One particularly active area has been broadly tunable femtosecond sources. This tutorial begins with a review of the fundamentals of parametric processes. It is followed by a brief review of some of the more recent advances in femtosecond optical parametric oscillators, covering the spectral range from the visible to the mid-infrared.

ABSTRACTWithin the past several years, the development of advanced materials with large second and third order nonlinear (X2 and X3) effects has generated interest in developing devices to exploit these properties in military systems of the future. This interest has taken many forms, from the funding of basic research aimed at developing enhanced nonlinear optical effects in materials to the deployment of actual mil-spec devices. Two years ago, at this same forum, we delineated a series of materials performance requirements which, if achieved, would allow device developers to take maximum advantage of these nonlinear effects in such disciplines as optical computing, optoelectronic interconnects and sensor protection. In the interim, DoD requirements for advanced materials and devices have continued to accentuate the need for advanced nonlinear optical materials. This paper will discuss some of the most recent trends in nonlinear optical materials research from a device requirements perspective, including an overview of the results of the recent DARPA forum on nonlinear optical materials and a discussion of future directions. As in the previous paper, we will confine ourselves to three challenging areas: nonlinear optical materials for optical computing applications, materials for computer peripherals and internode communications, and materials for sensor protection.

The beginning of June saw the cities of Tokyo, Kyoto, and Shanghai host to several weeks of interdisciplinary exchanges on a broad spectrum of materials topics. The meetings began with the MRS International Meeting on Advanced Materials (May 30 - June 3) and continued with the Shanghai Workshop on Characterization of Ion Implantation in Silicon (June 2-3) held as part of the 7th International Conference on Ion Implantation Technology in Kyoto (June 7-10), the 6th International Conference on Ion Beam Modification of Materials (June 12-17), and the JSAP-MRS International Conference on Electronic Materials (June 13-15).During the week preceding the meetings, the International Trade Center grounds at Harumi were the site of an Advanced Materials and Engineering Exhibition. Machine tools, CAD/CAM, and advanced materials exhibits filled three pavilions. The Materials Research Society was represented in the advanced materials area where, through a brochure translated into Japanese, the Society and its programs were introduced to the exhibit's visitors.The concept for the MRS International Meeting on Advanced Materials held May 30 to June 3 took root several years ago and represents the first “MRS-style” event to be organized in Japan. Based on the enthusiastic participation by Japanese scientists and by a healthy complement of foreign scientists, it should repeat. MRS First Vice President R.P.H. Chang has been responsible for the interaction between the Materials Research Society and the meeting Organizers.General chairmen for the event were S. Somiya of the Nishi Tokyo University (currently a Principal Editor for Journal of Materials Research) and M. Doyama of Nagoya University. They assembled some 20 topical symposia which were held in two buildings of the Sunshine City complex in the Ikebukuro district of Tokyo. All the sessions were very well attended, with total meeting registrant numbers reaching over 1,500.
