Norfolk State University received a $250,543 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Integrative Activities program to acquire an EMXplus electron paramagnetic resonance spectrometer. The spectrometer will allow researchers to characterize the magnetic properties and electron behaviors of novel materials being developed for applications in energy technologies, information processing, and other fields. It will also serve as a multi-user facility supporting science, technology, engineering, and mathematics research at Norfolk State University and partner historically black colleges and universities. The funding will enrich education by providing undergraduate and graduate students, including those from underrepresented minority groups, with hands-on experience using advanced scientific equipment through involvement in cutting-edge materials research projects.
