This Phase II proposal seeks to continue and expand the Center for Atomically Thin Multifunctional Coatings (ATOMIC), devoted to the design and development of advanced coatings based on two-dimensional (2D) materials. ATOMIC Phase II will synergistically integrate students, faculty, and staff from Pennsylvania State University, Rice University, and Boise State University to advance coating science across multiple technology readiness levels. Research performed at Rice will focus on multifunctional hexagonal boron nitride(hBN) coatings, photocatalytic coatings, printed nano-antennas, and advanced microscopy characterization of 2D materials. Because of the aligned partnership among academia, government, and industry, ATOMIC phase II will seeks to impact the education and training of students, particularly those who are underrepresented minorities. To encourage young people to pursue science-technology research degrees, the center will jointly conduct outreach activities and leverage ongoing NSF Engineering Research Centers (REU), Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) and Research Experiences for Teachers (RET) programs at Rice. ATOMIC will leverage the Rice Alliance for Technology and Entrepreneurship to foster academic-industry relationships and enhance the transfer of knowledge from the Universities to the marketplace. Two-dimensional (2D) materials exhibit a variety of unique properties, different from bulk phases, that will enhance the performance of existing coating technologies. Phase I of ATOMIC laid the foundation for demonstrating these ultrathin materials with improved performance in corrosion resistance, extreme environmental tolerance, energy harvesting/storage, biocompatibility, and enhanced molecular sensitivity. ATOMIC Phase II plans to build on the foundation of scientific innovation in 2D materials at Penn State and Rice University and expand it into scalable 2D materials printing enabled by the addition of Boise State University. Penn State and Rice have successfully employed fundamental research programs in novel 2D materials, such as graphene, hBN, MoS2, and WS2; and Boise State has joined with experience in nanomaterial ink development and controlled precision printing such as inkjet, plasma jet, aerosol jet, and micro-dispensing. The joint research efforts chosen and designed by ATOMIC will concentrate on addressing key societal and industrial problems in areas of U.S. national interest that can be mitigated through advanced multifunctional coatings, such as infrastructure protection, internet of things (IoT) sensing, electronics, energy harvesting/storage, autonomous systems, and biological threat reduction.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该II期提案旨在继续并扩展原子薄的多功能涂层中心（原子），专门研究基于二维（2D）材料的高级涂料的设计和开发。 II阶段将协同整合宾夕法尼亚州立大学，赖斯大学和博伊西州立大学的学生，教职员工和教职员工，以促进跨多种技术准备水平的涂层科学。在大米进行的研究将集中于多功能的六角硼（HBN）涂层，光催化涂层，印刷纳米 - 安妮纳斯（Nano-Antennas）以及2D材料的高级显微镜表征。由于学术界，政府和工业之间的合作伙伴关系保持一致，Atomic II阶段将寻求影响学生的教育和培训，尤其是那些人数不足的学生。为了鼓励年轻人攻读科学技术研究学位，该中心将共同开展外展活动，并利用正在进行的NSF工程研究中心（REU），本科生的研究经验（REU）和赖斯教师计划的研究经验（RET）。 Atomic将利用大米联盟进行技术和企业家精神来促进学术行业关系，并增强知识从大学到市场的转移。二维（2D）材料表现出各种独特的特性，这些特性不同于大体相，这些特性将增强现有涂料技术的性能。原子的第一阶段为证明这些超薄材料的基础具有提高的耐腐蚀性，极端的环境耐受性，能量收获/储存，生物相容性和增强的分子灵敏度。 Atomic II阶段计划以宾夕法尼亚州立大学和赖斯大学的2D材料的科学创新为基础，并将其扩展到可扩展的2D材料打印中，并通过添加博伊西州立大学（Boise State University）启用。宾夕法尼亚州立大学和大米已成功地采用了新型2D材料，例如石墨烯，HBN，MOS2和WS2。博伊西州立大学（Boise State）在纳米材料墨水开发和受控精确印刷方面的经验，例如喷墨，等离子喷气机，气溶胶喷气机和微分解。原子质选择和设计的联合研究工作将集中于解决美国国家利益领域的关键社会和工业问题，可以通过先进的多功能涂料（例如基础设施保护，物联网（IoT）感应，电子设备，能源收获/存储/存储/存储/存储，自主系统，以及通过Readigution降低统计的nissfory demition demy ne sf）来缓解这些问题。基金会的智力优点和更广泛的影响评论标准。
