The National Science Foundation (NSF) Office of Integrative Activities awarded $298,472 to New Mexico State University (NMSU) under the Integrative Activities program (CFDA 47.083) for an EPSCOR Research Fellows Project Grant effective May 1, 2026, through April 30, 2028. This award provides research fellowship support to an Assistant Professor and graduate student training at NMSU to investigate superconductivity in 5D transition metal oxide heterostructures, specifically focusing on potassium tantalate materials engineered as extremely thin layers. The project combines materials science and condensed matter physics to examine how atomic structure and layer orientation influence superconducting properties in two-dimensional electron gases with strong spin-orbit coupling. Research activities include growing superconducting potassium tantalate-based samples using molecular beam epitaxy and characterizing their electronic properties through low-temperature transport measurements. The project strengthens research capacity in quantum materials at NMSU while providing advanced training opportunities for graduate students and expands collaborative partnerships with Cornell University through Professor Darrell Schlom. Deliverables include enhanced faculty expertise in condensed matter physics, improved understanding of quantum materials design principles, and development of emerging technologies with improved electronic properties. By advancing institutional research capabilities and workforce development in a critical scientific domain, this award supports NSF's mission to build capacity for science and engineering through targeted infrastructure and personnel development initiatives.Federal Grant Award Summary
