This grant provides support for the acquisition of a magnetometer for materials research and student training at the University of Michigan. This new instrument will be used for fundamental materials characterization and exploration and will serve a broad and interdisciplinary community of materials researchers at the University of Michigan. The instrument will strengthen existing materials synthesis efforts in the Chemistry, Geology, Nuclear Engineering, and Physics Departments by providing timely feedback on the relationships between structural and morphological characteristics, and the underlying magnetic phenomena such as moment configuration and anisotropy, magnetic order, and other types of phase transitions. The instrument will also be used to perform fundamental measurements at low temperatures, high magnetic fields, and high pressures on materials with strong electronic correlations, molecular magnets, geological materials, and nanostructured materials. Hydrostatic pressure apparatus for use in magnetization measurements will be developed, allowing the exploration of magnetic stability in both geological materials and in quantum critical systems. The new magnetometer will be the centerpiece of a new interdisciplinary laboratory course for undergraduates on magnetic materials and their characterization techniques, which will be taught by faculty members from the Physics, Chemistry, Geology, Materials Science, and Nuclear Engineering departments.

这笔赠款为密歇根大学购买磁力计提供支持，用于材料研究和学生培训。这种新仪器将用于基础材料表征和探索，并将为密歇根大学广泛的跨学科材料研究人员群体提供服务。该仪器将通过及时反馈结构和形态特征之间的关系以及潜在的磁现象（例如矩配置和各向异性、磁序等）来加强化学、地质学、核工程和物理系现有的材料合成工作。相变的类型。该仪器还将用于在低温、高磁场和高压下对具有强电子相关性的材料、分子磁体、地质材料和纳米结构材料进行基本测量。将开发用于磁化测量的静水压力装置，从而可以探索地质材料和量子临界系统中的磁稳定性。 新的磁力计将成为面向本科生的磁性材料及其表征技术的新跨学科实验室课程的核心，该课程将由来自物理、化学、地质学、材料科学和核工程系的教师教授。
