Enhancing Laser Capacity for Studying Functional Surface Structures on Metals

Abstract

This DURIP project requests instrumentation support to enhance our study of functionalized surfacestructures on metals. The budget requested here will allow us to purchase equipment that constitute a singlesystem that will significantly boost the experimental capacity and performance for our ongoing DoD projects,primarily our project in the Materials Science Program at ARO (Award number: W911NF-15-1-0319). Furthermore,there has been a significant increase in demand for accelerating our original ARO research from a number of DoDprograms. This DURIP project will increase our research capacity in meeting these other DoD research demandsas well, including an add-on project to ARO by DARPA, an ARO Army Education and Outreach Program, a subcontract project from Army ARDEC, and a sub-contract DARPA project led by Boeing. Therefore, this DURIPinvestment will benefit a total of 5 ongoing DoD related projects all branching out from the ARO project.
