The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a 5-year, $300,000 CAREER grant under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program to Oklahoma State University (OSU). The grant supports OSU's research project to engineer topological order in tunable artificial ruthenate heterostructures. The project aims to develop synthesis and characterization techniques for complex oxide materials that can host topological phases, which have potential applications in quantum information science. In addition to the research, the grant includes educational activities such as new courses on topological physics for undergraduate and graduate students, as well as an annual summer camp for middle school students focused on materials science. No sub-awards are planned for this grant.
