Description
This fellowship opportunity at the Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) supports advanced research in materials science and technology focused on two-dimensional nanomaterials. The project involves the use of aberration-corrected scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) and lithography techniques to image, design, and manipulate novel 2D materials at atomic resolution. The atomic-level imaging and processing capabilities enable unprecedented control and measurement of the properties of these materials, advancing fundamental understanding and potential applications.
The research is conducted on-site at the Naval Research Laboratory in Washington, DC, providing access to state-of-the-art microscopy facilities and expert mentorship.
