Advanced Nanoscale Property Characterization by Atomic Force Microscopy

Due: May 1, 2025

$82,764

Description

In the last few decades, the basic nanoscale three-dimensional (3D) surface profiling of the atomic force microscope (AFM) has been augmented by a variety of property characterizations. These developments aim to improve the accuracy and spatial resolution of AFM-based measurement techniques for applications in semiconductor and electromechanical device industries.

Grantor Contact InformationGheorghe Stan, Phone: 301 975 3675Grantor Emailgheorghe.stan@nist.govOther Grantor InformaitonThe NRC Research Associateship Programs (RAP) are prestigious postdoctoral and senior research awards designed to provide promising scientists and engineers with high-quality research opportunities at federal laboratories and affiliated institutions. Conducted by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine's Fellowships Office since 1954, these programs offer a comprehensive research experience through a rigorous selection process. The programs aim to: 1) Offer promising postdoctoral and senior scientists/engineers the chance to pursue self-directed research aligned with sponsoring laboratories' goals, 2) Enhance comprehensive research efforts of participating laboratories, 3) Provide recent doctoral graduates a platform for focused research collaboration with permanent laboratory staff, and 4) Foster professional growth by providing opportunities to gain skills, experience, and connections with leading scientists, ultimately enhancing career prospects in academia, industry, or government research roles. The programs provide mentorship, access to state-of-the-art facilities, and opportunities to influence government policy.
