Award Details: Products and Services: This CAREER award supports fundamental research to advance understanding of non-equilibrium electro-thermal transport mechanisms in nanoscale quantum systems, specifically metal nanoparticles used as photocatalysts. The primary deliverable is the application and development of a novel in situ measurement technique called Two-Temperature Scanning Thermal Microscopy, which will simultaneously map electron and phonon temperature fields at nanometer resolution within individual nanoparticles under plasmonic excitation. Research outputs will include quantitative measurements of nanoscale heat source density, local electron-phonon coupling rates, and interfacial thermal resistance between nanoparticles and supporting substrates, as well as investigation of multi-particle interactions and quantum confinement effects on energy transport. These findings are intended to advance the design of more efficient photocatalytic systems for solar-driven chemical reactions and improved energy conversion technologies. Workforce Development Component: The award integrates educational and training objectives through hands-on learning opportunities in advanced nanotechnology and nanoscale measurement techniques for graduate and undergraduate students, as well as engagement of high school students in research activities. This workforce development element aligns with the NSF Engineering program's emphasis on fostering innovation and excellence while developing a diverse and skilled engineering workforce.Federal Grant Award Summary
