This project focuses on novel solid compounds composed of elements of boron (B), carbon (C), and nitrogen (N), a class of compounds commonly referred to as frontier carbon materials. Inaddition to investigating how to control the arrangement of B, C, and N atoms during the synthesis materials such as boron nitride, carbon nitride and boron-carbon nitride, the functions of kinetic energy of the growth species, potential energy of the growth species, and the role of catalysts in controlling bonding between B, C, and N atoms will be explored. The goal is to create new thin films and nanostructures of boron nitride, carbon nitride and boron-carbon-nitride with desired physical properties. The project will stimulate cross-disciplinary research collaborations within the campus and in other universities and national laboratories. The related education components will stimulate the interest of teenagers in the physical sciences through undergraduate education, laboratory tours, summer youth exploration, summer research programs, and will include a new graduate course and a minor in nanoscale science and technology. This project will provide training opportunities to new researchers who will then be able to advance the science of novel carbon materials as thin films and nanostructures with desired physical properties.

Frontier carbon materials are of high interest to US industry. Students trained in these and related areas are typically highly competitive in the job market.

本项目主要研究由硼（B）、碳（C）、氮（N）元素组成的新型固体化合物，这类化合物通常被称为前沿碳材料。除了研究在合成材料如氮化硼、氮化碳和硼-碳氮化物期间如何控制B、C和N原子的排列之外，还将探索生长物种的动能、生长物种的势能的功能以及催化剂在控制B、C和N原子之间的键合中的作用。目标是创造具有所需物理性质的氮化硼、氮化碳和硼-碳-氮化物的新薄膜和纳米结构。该项目将促进校园内以及其他大学和国家实验室的跨学科研究合作。相关的教育内容将通过本科教育、实验室图尔斯参观、暑期青年探索、暑期研究项目，激发青少年对物理科学的兴趣，并将包括一门新的研究生课程和一门纳米科学与技术辅修课程。该项目将为新的研究人员提供培训机会，他们将能够推进新型碳材料的科学，如具有所需物理特性的薄膜和纳米结构。该项目将促进校园内以及其他大学和国家实验室的跨学科研究合作。相关的教育内容将通过本科教育、实验室图尔斯参观、暑期青年探索、暑期研究方案、新的研究生课程和纳米科学与技术辅修课程，激发青少年对物理科学的兴趣。 前沿碳材料是美国工业界的高度兴趣。在这些领域和相关领域接受培训的学生通常在就业市场上具有很强的竞争力。
