The Division of Chemistry supports Andrea Munro of the University of Arizona as an American Competitiveness in Chemistry Fellow. Dr. Munro will synthesize and study the properties of semiconductor nanocrystals (CdSe) embedded in a polymer matrix. Dr. Munro will work in collaboration with scientists at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory. In her plan for broadening participation, Dr. Munro will develop hands-on materials with associated curriculum to be used by teachers of grades K-6 in the Tucson and Sunnyside school districts. Some of these materials may be modified for use in the University of Arizona Biosphere II for outreach to the general public.Research like that of Dr. Munro is aimed at developing better materials for photovoltaic devices with improved properties, as well as developing a better understanding of how these materials behave. The ultimate aim of research like this is to develop better materials for solar energy applications. The efforts at broadening participation being pursued by Dr. Munro are aimed at increasing the participation of young people from underrepresented groups in the sciences.

化学系支持亚利桑那大学的安德里亚·蒙罗（Andrea Munro）作为化学研究员的美国竞争力。 Munro博士将合成和研究嵌入聚合物基质中的半导体纳米晶体（CDSE）的性质。 Munro博士将与国家可再生能源实验室的科学家合作。 在扩大参与计划的计划中，Munro博士将开发动手材料和相关课程，将由K-6年级的教师在图森和逊尼西德学区使用。 这些材料中的一些可以在亚利桑那大学生物圈II中使用，以向公共公共展开。这些材料的行为方式。 这样的研究的最终目的是为太阳能应用开发更好的材料。 蒙罗博士进行的扩大参与的努力旨在增加来自代表性不足的科学团体的年轻人的参与。
