This integrated research and educational CAREER project will apply the "bottom-up" approach of atomic and molecular manipulation to produce new nanoscale structures. Three areas of emphasis are involved: (1) probing and manipulating the intrinsic degrees of freedom of the atom, such as energy levels, charge, and spin; (2) probing and manipulating the interface between the atom and the external environment, involving imaging chemical bonds, electronic and vibrational structure, and electron correlation effects; and ultimately (3) the nuclear properties of single atoms, for example isotopic mass and nuclear spin. Synergistically with the laboratory component, the PI and Stanford University will implement a substantial educational and outreach program. This cross-cutting effort includes: (1) the introduction of a new co-terminal physics teaching program, (2) the development of two sets of new courses into which current research in nanoscale science and technology will be interwoven, (3) an outreach program to build nanoscience research and education within the Americas, and (4) the construction of a remote-control station for atom manipulation in order to promote nanoscience education via visual tools to visiting students and to the public.This integrated research and educational CAREER project seeks to apply the "bottom-up" approach of atomic and molecular manipulation to several focused areas in science and technology. Controlled atom and molecule manipulation and atom-by-atom assembly of complex structures on the nanometer length scale are capabilities existing now only at the frontiers of science and technology. The students involved in this proposed research and education plan will receive a unique and cross-discipline training in emerging fields now universally identified as critical to society and our understanding of nature. Synergistically with the laboratory component of this plan, the PI and Stanford University will implement a substantial educational and outreach program. This cross-cutting effort includes the introduction of a new co-terminal physics teaching program, the development of two sets of new courses into which current research in nanoscale science and technology will be interwoven, an outreach program to build nanoscience research and education within the Americas, and finally the construction of a remote-control station for atom manipulation in order to promote nanoscience education via visual tools to visiting students and to the public.

这个综合性的研究和教育事业项目将应用原子和分子操纵的“自下而上”方法来产生新的纳米结构。 重点包括三个方面：（1）探测和操纵原子的固有自由度，如能级、电荷和自旋;（2）探测和操纵原子与外部环境之间的界面，包括成像化学键、电子和振动结构以及电子相关效应;以及最终（3）单个原子的核性质，例如同位素质量和核自旋。 PI和斯坦福大学将与实验室部分协同实施一项实质性的教育和推广计划。 这一贯穿各领域的努力包括：（1）引入一个新的共同终端物理教学计划，（2）开发两套新的课程，其中当前的纳米科学和技术研究将交织在一起，（3）在美洲建立纳米科学研究和教育的推广计划，及（4）建造原子操控的遥控站，透过视觉工具向到访学生及公众推广纳米科学教育。这个综合研究及教育的CAREER计划旨在应用“自下而上”的方法，原子和分子操纵的方法在科学和技术的几个重点领域。 可控的原子和分子操纵以及纳米尺度上的复杂结构的原子接原子组装是目前仅存在于科学和技术前沿的能力。 参与这项拟议的研究和教育计划的学生将在现在普遍认为对社会和我们对自然的理解至关重要的新兴领域接受独特的跨学科培训。 PI和斯坦福大学将与本计划的实验室部分协同实施一项实质性的教育和推广计划。 这种跨领域的努力包括引入一个新的共同终端物理教学计划，两套新课程的发展，其中目前的研究在纳米科学和技术将交织在一起，一个推广计划，以建立纳米科学研究和教育在美洲，最后是建造一个远程的原子操纵控制站，以便通过可视化工具向来访的学生和公众推广纳米科学教育。
