The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $435,483 Project Grant under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences (MPS) program to the University of Tennessee in Knoxville. The grant, effective January 1, 2024 through December 31, 2026, supports a research project led by Dr. Janice Musfeldt that focuses on studying the properties of molecular multiferroics, quantum magnets, and spin qubits under external stimuli such as high magnetic fields, pressure, and strain. The team will use various spectroscopic techniques to measure changes in the charge, orbits, structure, and magnetism of these quantum materials in order to develop phase diagrams, reveal coupling processes, and explore strategies for enhancing chemical and physical tunability. This research has the potential to advance the understanding of quantum materials and contribute to the fields of spintronics and quantum information science. No sub-awards are planned under this grant.
