9322437 Collins This REU Site award provides an opportunity for twelve undergraduate students to gain research experience synthesis and characterization techniques.. The students will be participating in on-going research projects, including: ionic exchange waveguides in soda-lime glass; manophase clusters in insulator hosts by synthesizing and characterizing the infrared reesponse and thermal properties of dielectric materials confined to porous borosilicate glass and alumina; crystal growth and characterization of ternary telluride crystals; spectroscopic studies of glasses for nonlinear optical applications; surface characterization of modified surfaces of zinc-cadmium-telluride single crystals using electron and ion-beam spectroscopies; and photoconductivity studies of mercury iodide and lead iodide. %%% The goal of this program at Fisk University, a Historically Black University, is to provide undergraduate students with a successful research experience in on-going research projects which will serve to teach students the scientific approach to problem solving, as well as advanced methods of materials synthesis and characterization, and motivate more students to obtain professional/advanced degrees. Increased participation from other institutions will be emphasized and where possible, students from different schools will be paired together to foster a better learning environment.

9322437柯林斯 这个REU网站奖为12名本科生提供了一个获得合成和表征技术研究经验的机会。 学生们将参与正在进行的研究项目，包括：钠钙玻璃中的离子交换波导;通过合成和表征限制在多孔硼硅酸盐玻璃和氧化铝中的介电材料的红外响应和热性能，在绝缘体基质中的manphase集群;三元碲化物晶体的晶体生长和表征;非线性光学应用的玻璃的光谱研究;利用电子和离子束光谱对碲化锌镉单晶的改性表面进行表面表征;以及对碘化汞和碘化铅进行光电导性研究。 %%% 该计划在菲斯克大学，历史上的黑人大学的目标是为本科生提供正在进行的研究项目，这将有助于教学生解决问题的科学方法的成功研究经验，以及材料合成和表征的先进方法，并激励更多的学生获得专业/高级学位。 我们会加强其他院校的参与，并在可能的情况下，安排不同学校的学生配对，以营造更佳的学习环境。
