The principal investigator and their research team at Jackson State University are developing advanced porous materials that may enable applications in energy...
- This $250,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Division of Materials Research (CFDA 47.049 - Mathematical and Physical Sciences) supports research to design and discover new "heteroanionic" materials containing multiple types of negatively charged anion atoms. The goal is to understand how the atomic-scale structure of these complex materials influences their electronic, magnetic, and optical properties, enabling the development of advanced materials for...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $314,920 Project Grant under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) to Tuskegee University. The grant will fund a collaborative research project focused on the computationally driven discovery and synthesis of novel 2D materials through selective etching. Researchers will combine computational, experimental, and machine learning techniques to develop an enabling process for the electrochemical extraction of atomic layers...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $188,719 Project Grant through its Integrative Activities (CFDA 47.083) program to the University of Arkansas (UA) to support research on developing new nanostructures made from earth-abundant metal oxides and chalcogenides. Professor Jingyi Chen and her research team at UA will use a template-directed synthesis approach to precisely control the morphology and composition of these hollow nanoshells, which have potential applications in energy conversion, energy storage, chemical sensing, and water treatment. As part of this project, the research team will provide research opportunities for underrepresented students and develop educational outreach materials to share the project's findings. The award period runs from September 1, 2023 to August 31, 2026.
