The National Science Foundation Office of International Science and Engineering awarded the University of California, Davis a $4 million Project Grant under the Office of International Science and Engineering federal grant program (CFDA 47.079) to support the Accel-Net Implementation for Quantum Materials research network. The grant will fund a global collaborative research effort through 2026 involving ten networks of experimental, computational, and theoretical scientists to accelerate the discovery of new classes of quantum materials. Key activities include international teams working together on synthesizing new quantum materials, studying them using various spectroscopic tools, and subjecting materials to extreme conditions such as high pressures or magnetic fields. The network aims to explore a vast parameter space across the periodic table to identify materials with extraordinary properties for applications like high-temperature superconductors, sustainable energy storage, and quantum technologies. Data from successes and failures will populate a materials database and inform a roadmap for future research.
