Raman Microscope for the Characterization of Complex Organic Nanosystems
Abstract
1.1. Abstract. The aim of this proposal is to obtain a confocal Raman microscope for the purpose of characterizing hierarchical materials at different length scales. This instrument will support the PIsÕ current DoD funded research including: (1) creating donor-acceptor light responsive films (ARO, Braunschweig), (2) exploring abundant carbohydrate feedstock for nanotechnology applications (AFOSR, Braunschweig), (3) characterizing 4D patterns (AFOSR, Braunschweig), (4) developing transient nanopatterns by biocatalytic self-assembly (ARO, Riedo and Ulijn), (5) understanding adaptive nanostructures that assemble using dynamic molecular systems (AFOSR, Ulijn), (6) analyzing mitochondrial dysfunctional and disease progression (CDMRP, Casaccia), (7) producing Ultrafast Light Emitters based on Photonic Hypercrystals and 2D Semiconductors (ARO, Menon), and (8) exposing high school and undergraduate students to cutting-edge research opportunities (ARO HSAP/URAP Braunschweig). In addition, this microscope will support other researchers throughout the City University of New York who are working on other projects funded by various DoD agencies. This Raman microscope will provided researchers at the City University of New York with the sophisticated tools to characterize complex materials with emergent properties that arise as a result of their nanoscale ordering.
