U.S.-Mexico Cooperative Research: Studies of Nanostructured Materials

9503854 Gonsalves 该美洲计划奖将支持康涅狄格大学材料科学研究所的 Kenneth Gonsalves 博士与墨西哥库埃纳瓦卡国立自治大学 (UNAM) 物理研究所的 Ramiro Perez Campos 博士进行研究合作。 研究人员打算表征和研究纳米结构材料的特性。 这些新型材料（包括 M50 型钢）越来越受到北美航空航天及相关行业的关注。 该研究将重点关注金属有机化学原理和材料加工概念。 康涅狄格大学的研究人员将重点关注化学加工和固结方面，而墨西哥国立自治大学的研究小组将重点研究通过 X 射线和电子衍射以及通过高分辨率透射电子显微镜进行晶格成像的粉末和固结样品的微观结构表征。 预计康涅狄格大学综合小组和墨西哥国立自治大学显微镜小组的互补努力将加强和促进长期的科学互动。 ***

9503854 Gonsalves This Americas Program award will support Dr. Kenneth Gonsalves of the Institute of Materials Science of the University of Connecticut in a research collaboration with Dr. Ramiro Perez Campos of the Institute of Physics of the Universidad Autonoma Nacional (UNAM) at Cuernavaca, Mexico. The researchers intend to characterize and investigate the properties of nanostructured materials. These novel materials, which include M50 type steels, are of increasing interest to the aerospace and related industries in North America. The research will focus on the principles of metal-organic chemistry and materials processing concepts. Researchers at the University of Connecticut will emphasize chemical processing and consolidation aspects, while the group at UNAM will focus on the microstructural characterization of powders and consolidated samples via X-ray and electron diffraction, as well as lattice imaging by high resolution transmission electron microscopy. It is expected that the complementary efforts of the synthesis group at the University of Connecticut and the microscopy group at UNAM will strengthen and promote long-term scientific interactions. ***
