The National Science Foundation Division of Chemical, Bioengineering, Environmental, and Transport Systems awarded a $280,000 Project Grant to The Regents of the University of California for collaborative research on microscopic mechanisms and kinetics of laser-induced phase explosion. The three-year award runs from September 1, 2021 through August 31, 2024.
The research is being conducted under the NSF Directorate for Engineering's Engineering program (CFDA 47.041), which aims to improve quality of life and economic strength through fostering innovation and excellence in engineering research. Specifically, the University of California, Berkeley will investigate laser-induced phase changes at the microscopic level to better understand phase explosion kinetics, with results expected to further engineering applications of laser processing. The place of performance for the research is Berkeley, California.
