Structural Studies of Defects, Disorder and Phase Transitions

他们将继续研究材料中的缺陷、无序和相变。主要的研究技术是x射线和中子散射和计算机建模/模拟。作为正在进行的项目的一部分，他们将研究的材料包括：a)石墨插层化合物，b)准晶体和c)超导体。他们还计划在（100）GaAs晶体上对GaAs薄膜的外延和相干性进行一些新的研究。

They will continue their studies of defects, disorder and phase transition in materials. The principle research techniques are X-ray and neutron scattering and computer modeling/simulation. The materials they will investigate as part of their ongoing program include: a) graphite intercalation compounds, b) quasicrystals and c) superconductors. They also plan some new work on epitaxy and coherency in GaAs films on (100) GaAs crystals.
