The Research Improvement in Minority Institutions (RIMI) program was established to provide support to strengthen the research environments and capabilities of predominantly minority institutions or institutions that have substantial minority student enrollments. Eligible institutions must also have graduate programs in science or programs in engineering. Funding is provided for faculty research in fields of science and engineering supported by the Foundation and for the acquisition of research instrumentation. City College will utilize RIMI support to purchase equipment that will expose their students to state-of-the-art laser, minicomputer, and spectroscopic techniques. Researchers at City College will use cyanine dyes as spectral sensitizers to inject mobile electrons into seminconductor substrates. The resultant mobile electrons can lead to reactions at the surface of semiconductors that have wide scientific and commerical implications. This project on photodynamics will meet the research needs of a first rate urban institution that educates minorities at the leading edge of the physical sciences. The principal investigator, who is a minority, is an expert in Raman surface scattering and has experience in the academic and industrial sectors. The Foundation has supported this project because minority faculty and students will have their research capabilities enhanced by their participation in meritorious experimental and theoretical activities.

少数民族机构研究改进（RIMI）计划的建立是为了提供支持，以加强主要少数民族机构或少数民族学生入学率高的机构的研究环境和能力。符合条件的机构还必须有科学或工程项目的研究生课程。为基金会支持的科学和工程领域的教师研究以及购买研究仪器提供资金。城市学院将利用RIMI的支持来购买设备，这些设备将使他们的学生接触到最先进的激光、小型计算机和光谱技术。城市学院的研究人员将使用花青染料作为光谱增感剂，将移动的电子注入半导体衬底。由此产生的移动的电子可以导致半导体表面的反应，具有广泛的科学和化学意义。这个关于光动力学的项目将满足一流城市机构的研究需求，该机构在物理科学的前沿教育少数民族。首席研究员是少数民族，是拉曼表面散射方面的专家，在学术和工业部门都有经验。该基金会支持这一项目，因为少数民族教师和学生将通过参加有价值的实验和理论活动提高他们的研究能力。
