Synchrotron Methods: Extended X-Ray Absorption Fine Structure

Due: May 1, 2025

$82,764

Description

We have developed state-of-the-art synchrotron based extended x-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) measurements to enable the development and optimization of materials for electronics, photonics, energy conversion, sustainable energy, catalysis, and sensing applications. Materials that can be investigated include monolayers to bulk materials of all classes. Examples of ongoing measurement studies include (1) the bonding chemistry and local atomic structure of ferroelectric perovskites, (2) strain dependent electronic phase tra...

Fischer, dfischer@nist.gov, 631.344.5177 Bruce Ravel, bruce.ravel@nist.gov, 631.344.3613Grantor Emailrap@nas.eduOther Grantor InformationThe 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.
