HRD 0317722CREST Center for Photonic Materials ResearchNorfolk State UniversityPI: Carl E. BonnerNorfolk State University (NSU) will continue to build the research competitiveness of the physical sciences faculty and national recognition in the area of photonic materials through the CREST Center for Photonic Materials Research (CPMR). This renewal award will strengthen competitive activity in the areas of photonics, spintronics, and nanotechnology. Research efforts will focus on integrated micro- and nano-structured materials with organic/inorganic and dielectric/metal phases, and their unique nonlinear optical, photovoltaic, and spin-related properties. These efforts build upon NSU's established research strengths in the design, synthesis, processing, and characterization of inorganic and organic optical and magnetic materials.Research subprojects include: (1) study and engineering of basic physical and spectroscopic properties of random lasers and nano-composite photonic materials; (2) novel nano-structured organic materials for opto-electronics; and (3) study of electron-nuclear spin dynamics in high-spin systems for new spintronic and photonic applications. Educational goals of the Center are to increase the number of underrepresented minority students trained in the field of photonics and nanotechnology and to prepare them for positions of leadership in emerging areas of science and technology. NSU will build upon the strengths of the existing MS Program in Materials Science to develop a MS program in Optical Engineering and Electronics Engineering and to initiate a Ph.D. Program in Materials Science and Engineering.

诺福克州立大学CREST光子材料研究中心PI：卡尔·E·邦纳诺福克州立大学(NSU)将继续通过CREST光子材料研究中心(CPMR)建立物理教师的研究竞争力和在光子材料领域的国家认知度。这一续展奖项将加强光子学、自旋电子学和纳米技术领域的竞争活动。研究工作将集中在具有有机/无机和介电/金属相的集成微米和纳米结构材料，以及它们独特的非线性光学、光伏和自旋相关性质。这些工作建立在NSU在无机和有机光学和磁性材料的设计、合成、加工和表征方面的现有研究实力的基础上。研究子项目包括：(1)随机激光和纳米复合光子材料的基本物理和光谱性质的研究和工程；(2)用于光电子的新型纳米结构有机材料；以及(3)用于新的自旋和光子应用的高自旋系统中的电子-核自旋动力学研究。该中心的教育目标是增加在光子学和纳米技术领域接受培训的人数不足的少数族裔学生的人数，并使他们为在新兴科学和技术领域担任领导职务做好准备。北卡罗来纳州立大学将在现有材料科学硕士项目的基础上，开发光学工程和电子工程的硕士项目，并启动材料科学和工程的博士项目。
