Functional Nanomaterial's Synthesis and Characterization

Abstract

The aim of this proposal is to purchase equipment at Florida A and M University (FAMU) which will play a key role in synthesis and characterization of nanoparticles and polymers. Current progress is being made at Argonne National Labs (ANL) and at AFRL in characterization methods but the goal is to use the equipment at FAMU year round to carry forward the research and to provide a continuous education tool to minority students. The requested equipment will play an important role in synthesizing and characterizing the functional materials of interest to DOD and will help understand the link between material properties to polymer and particle properties at FAMU. The research program will educate and introduce FAMU students to modern instrumentation and help answer state of the art questions in materials characterization and processing.
