CCDC Armaments Nanomaterials for Localized Surface Plasmon Resonance and Surface Enhanced Raman

Due: May 1, 2025

$60,000

Description

Nanomaterials exhibit unique properties that can be exploited for chemical detection. We are particularly interested in the development of new detection modalities based on localized surface plasmon resonance (lSPR) and surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS). To achieve this goal, we are interested in the development of methods for producing and functionalizing plasmonic nanoparticles with interesting shapes and sizes. Functionalization of particles with polymers and self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) provides a rapid method fo...

Grantor Contact InformationJoshua Ahab Maurer, Phone: 518 764 9131Grantor Emailjoshua.a.maurer4.civ@army.milOther 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.
