HRD- 0317607CREST Center for Nanomaterials Characterization Science and Processing TechnologyHoward UniversityPI - James W. MitchellHoward University (HU) will establish the CREST Center for Nanomaterials Characterization Science and Processing Technology. The Center will advance the chemical knowledge base underpinning the determination of the chemical status of nanomaterials, providing the intellectual foundation for verification of directed synthesis, and development of methods for fabricating new nanomaterials with definable chemical identities and technologically useful properties. In collaborations with investigators at Lucent Technologies, HU faculty will innovate processes for converting nanomaterials into thin film structures for device applications. HU efforts involve the formation of a core group of research faculty that focuses on the chemical, rather than the physical, characterization research of nanomaterials.The research and technology objectives of the CREST Center at Howard University include: (1) executing the characterization science research required for determining the chemical status of nanomaterials; (2) developing methods for generating novel nanomaterials and elucidating the vapor phase chemistry underlying the synthesis of nanomaterials; (3) innovating processes for fabricating nanostructured materials and devices with record setting performances; (4) enhancing research collaborations between multidisciplinary teams at HU, Lucent Technologies, and NIST; (5) broadening characterization research support across multiple disciplines at HU; (6) supporting researchcollaborations in nanoscience throughout the region, and (7) increasing the opportunity for undergraduates and graduate student participation in research and laboratory experimentation.

HRD -0317607CREST纳米材料的特征和加工技术Howard Universitypi -James W. Mitchellhoward University（HU）将建立纳米材料特征科学和加工技术的波峰中心。 该中心将推进基于纳米材料化学状态的化学知识基础，从而为验证定向合成的智力基础，并开发用于制造具有可确定化学认同和技术有用特性的新纳米材料的方法。 在与Lucent Technologies的研究人员的合作中，HU教师将创新过程，以将纳米材料转换为用于设备应用的薄膜结构。 HU的努力涉及组成一个核心研究学院，该研究人员侧重于化学物质，而不是纳米材料的物理表征研究。霍华德大学CREST中心的研究和技术目标包括：（1）执行确定纳米材料化学状态所需的特征科学研究； （2）开发用于生成新型纳米材料并阐明纳米材料合成的蒸气相化学的方法； （3）用于制造具有创纪录性能的纳米结构材料和设备的创新过程； （4）增强HU，Lucent Technologies和NIST的多学科团队之间的研究合作； （5）在HU的多个学科上扩大表征研究支持； （6）支持整个地区纳米科学的研究过程，（7）增加了本科生和研究生参与研究和实验室实验的机会。
