This CAREER award to Professor Howard Fairbrother of Johns Hopkins University is supported by the Analytical and Surface Chemistry Program in the Chemistry Division. The primary research objective is to study the behavior of self assembled monolayers and polyethylene surfaces when they are subjected to x-ray irradiation, and ion bombardment under ultra-high vacuum conditions. A molecular level understanding of the surface modification processes will be developed. Results from these studies will provide a detailed picture of the evolving interface during modification. Such information is important in the design of future treatment strategies and to the emerging field of polymer surface engineering. The educational aspect of this program has two main components. One is to use atomic force microscopy as a teaching tool in the University's physical chemistry lab and in outreach programs. The other is to develop experimental physical chemistry modules for inclusion on the University's web site. This project focuses on how x-rays, ions, and particles interact with organic surfaces to effect chemical transformations. The resulting knowledge of the changing surface will aid in the design of future surface treatment strategies and will be important to the emerging field of polymer surface engineering.

授予约翰·霍普金斯大学 Howard Fairbrother 教授的职业奖得到了化学部分析和表面化学项目的支持。主要研究目标是研究自组装单分子层和聚乙烯表面在超高真空条件下受到 X 射线照射和离子轰击时的行为。 将发展对表面改性过程的分子水平理解。这些研究的结果将提供修改过程中不断演变的界面的详细图片。这些信息对于未来处理策略的设计和新兴的聚合物表面工程领域非常重要。 该计划的教育方面有两个主要组成部分。 一是使用原子力显微镜作为大学物理化学实验室和外展项目的教学工具。另一个是开发实验物理化学模块以包含在大学网站上。 该项目重点研究 X 射线、离子和粒子如何与有机表面相互作用以实现化学转变。由此产生的关于不断变化的表面的知识将有助于设计未来的表面处理策略，并且对于新兴的聚合物表面工程领域非常重要。
