This CAREER award to Professor Howard Fairbrother of Johns Hopkins University is supported by the Analytical and Surface Chemistry Program in the Chemistry Division. The primary research objective is to study the behavior of self assembled monolayers and polyethylene surfaces when they are subjected to x-ray irradiation, and ion bombardment under ultra-high vacuum conditions. A molecular level understanding of the surface modification processes will be developed. Results from these studies will provide a detailed picture of the evolving interface during modification. Such information is important in the design of future treatment strategies and to the emerging field of polymer surface engineering. The educational aspect of this program has two main components. One is to use atomic force microscopy as a teaching tool in the University's physical chemistry lab and in outreach programs. The other is to develop experimental physical chemistry modules for inclusion on the University's web site. This project focuses on how x-rays, ions, and particles interact with organic surfaces to effect chemical transformations. The resulting knowledge of the changing surface will aid in the design of future surface treatment strategies and will be important to the emerging field of polymer surface engineering.

约翰霍普金斯大学教授霍华德费尔布雷泽的职业生涯奖得到了化学系分析和表面化学项目的支持。主要研究目标是研究自组装单分子膜和聚乙烯表面在超高真空条件下受到X射线照射和离子轰击时的行为。 将开发表面改性过程的分子水平的理解。这些研究的结果将提供修改过程中不断变化的界面的详细情况。这些信息在未来处理策略的设计和聚合物表面工程的新兴领域是重要的。 该方案的教育方面有两个主要组成部分。 一个是在大学的物理化学实验室和推广项目中使用原子力显微镜作为教学工具。另一个是开发实验物理化学模块，供列入大学的网站。 该项目的重点是X射线，离子和粒子如何与有机表面相互作用以实现化学转化。由此产生的知识变化的表面将有助于未来的表面处理策略的设计，并将是重要的聚合物表面工程的新兴领域。
