Presidential Young Investigator Award

这项总统青年研究人员奖将旨在了解从孤立分子的整体物理性质的演变，目的是发现材料的新的化学和物理性质。被研究的材料将包括纯化合物半导体团簇，以及掺杂磁性替代杂质以产生稀磁半导体团簇的团簇。还将实施一项并行合成计划，以准备新材料簇。

This Presidential Young Investigator Award will be aimed at understanding the evolution of bulk physical properties from those of isolated molecules, with the goal of discovering novel chemical and physical properties of materials. Materials to be investigated will include pure compound semiconductor clusters, and clusters doped with magnetic substitutional impurities to yield diluted magnetic semiconductor clusters. A parallel synthetic program to prepare clusters of new materials will also be implemented.
