Materials and Devices Research and Educational Infrastructure Enhancement
Abstract
The aim of the program is the enhancement in the education and research infrastructure for materials and devices research and development. We have thoroughly worked with the vendors to get equipment that is very flexible and capable of performing a variety of fabrication and characterization procedures and we have been able to maximize the features on the equipment and minimize the price. The equipment has been ordered and will arrive by the middle of September, 2005. The research programs that this equipment aims to support are progressing well with Dr. Crouse, Dr. Tamargo and Dr. Arend doing cutting-edge theoretical and experimental work on semiconductor quantum dots and quantum wires and surface plasmon enhanced optoelectronic devices. We have formed several collaborations within CCNY and CUNY and outside of CUNY to research materials and devices and maximize use of the equipment. We have also organized additional K-12 education and outreach programs, targeted to underrepresented minority-serving high schools in the Harlem Community. In the future, once the equipment arrives and is operational, it will be immediately used for research and educational programs. Technology transfer programs are targeted to use the equipment as well.
