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 future technologies in areas like microelectronics, quantum computing, and communications systems. The project will also integrate the materials discovery capabilities into educational curricula and create accessible, low-cost 3D printed teaching models to broaden participation of underrepresented groups in STEM fields. This award aims to advance the scientific understanding of these multi-anion materials and train the next generation of diverse scientists and engineers.
