The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Materials Research awarded $604,621 to The Leland Stanford Junior University under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) for a three-year project beginning July 1, 2026 and concluding June 30, 2029. The grant funds fundamental research investigating the effects of anisotropic and symmetry-breaking strains on hybridization and quantum phase transitions in strongly correlated quantum materials. The research will employ strain-tuning methods to examine materials at the intersection of local moment and itinerant electronic behavior, with particular focus on Kondo interactions and anisotropic Gruneissen ratios. Deliverables include direct experimental measurements, new characterization methodologies, and synthesized quantum material samples. Beyond research outputs, the project delivers significant educational and collaborative value. The award supports workforce development through training in crystal growth and characterization—areas identified as nationally important—while enabling broader research impact through material sharing with external institutions. The principal investigator engages in outreach activities supporting military veterans, and the project is positioned at a major research university with established expertise in materials synthesis and quantum systems characterization. The research represents core NSF support for fundamental materials science inquiry with direct application to understanding and tuning advanced quantum materials properties.Federal Project Grant Award Summary
