This National Science Foundation Young Investigator project is in the general area of analytical and surface chemistry and in the subfield of surface analysis. During the tenure of this five-year award, Professor Levis and his students will develop mass spectroscopic methods for studying complex molecules adsorbed on surfaces and found in this films. Two primary thrusts are involved: (1) the use of hyperthermal (1-10 eV) atoms to promote nondissociative desorption of complex adsorbates from surfaces for subsequent mass spectroscopic analysis and (2) investigation of the use of laser vaporization of biological molecules for use in high speed DNA sequencing experiments. %%% The successful attainment of the goals of this project should give rise to new mass spectroscopic techniques for molecular-level surface characterization, novel approaches to rapid DNA sequencing, and new approaches to heteroepitaxial deposition of thin-film molecular solids. Additionally, this NSF Young Investigator Award should significantly assist Professor Levis in his establishing a vital and productive program of research and research training.

该国家科学基金会青年研究员项目属于分析和表面化学的一般领域以及表面分析的子领域。 在这个为期五年的奖项任期内，李维斯教授和他的学生将开发质谱方法来研究吸附在表面和在薄膜中发现的复杂分子。 涉及两个主要推动力：(1) 使用超高温 (1-10 eV) 原子促进复杂吸附物从表面非解离解吸，以进行后续的质谱分析；(2) 研究生物分子的激光汽化用于高速 DNA 测序实验。 %%% 该项目目标的成功实现应该会产生用于分子水平表面表征的新质谱技术、快速 DNA 测序的新方法以及薄膜分子固体异质外延沉积的新方法。 此外，国家科学基金会青年研究员奖将极大地帮助莱维斯教授建立一个重要且富有成效的研究和研究培训计划。
