AbstractProposal Title: CAREER: Understanding and Exploiting the Surface Chemistry of Carbon Nanotubes: Optical Methods and Chemical Pathways for Manipulation, Control and Assembly at the NanoscaleProposal Number: CTS-0449147Principal Investigator: Michael S. StranoInstitution: University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Analysis (rationale for decision):This project addresses key technical challenges in the manipulation and control of nanostructures to enable new applications. Innovative scalable, chemical pathways will be developed for separating and sorting single walled carbon nanotubes by their electronic structure using selective, 4-hydroxybenzene diazonium chemistry. Electrophoresis will be used to isolate homogeneous samples for electron transport measurements and to explore applications such as novel ballistic conducting solids and 1-D thin film semiconductors. The alignment, placement and contacting of nanoscale objects in a scalable and controlled manner is of central importance in nanotechnology. This project will use a new optical technique developed to study electrophoretic and dielectrophoretic manipulation of carbon nanotubes as a means of controlling placement and orientation. These efforts will afford researchers new tools for nano-assembly and novel materials for electronic and optical applications. Interactive software modules on 1-D chemistry and physics will be developed and shared both on campus and with a university having a large minority population. An outreach program has been designed and initiated also: Nanotechnology-based Outreach for local Area High Schools (NOAH). By partnering with the College of Education at UIUC and several local area schools, the initiative couples newly developing, portable instrumentation with nanotechnology laboratory-based modules to bring enhanced science education to classrooms that are otherwise disadvantaged.

摘要建议标题：职业：了解和利用碳纳米管的表面化学：用于纳米级操纵、控制和组装的光学方法和化学途径建议编号：CTS-0449147首席研究员：迈克尔·S·斯特拉诺研究所：伊利诺伊大学香槟分校分析(决策的基本原理)：这个项目解决了操纵和控制纳米结构以实现新应用的关键技术挑战。将开发创新的可扩展的化学路径，利用选择性的4-羟基苯重氮化学法，根据单壁碳纳米管的电子结构分离和分类单壁碳纳米管。电泳法将被用来分离用于电子传输测量的均匀样品，并探索诸如新型弹道导电固体和一维薄膜半导体的应用。在纳米技术中，以可伸缩和可控制的方式排列、放置和接触纳米级物体是至关重要的。这个项目将使用一种新的光学技术来研究碳纳米管的电泳和介电泳法操作，作为控制放置和取向的一种手段。这些努力将为研究人员提供纳米组装的新工具，以及用于电子和光学应用的新型材料。一维化学和物理的互动软件模块将在校园内开发并与拥有大量少数民族人口的大学共享。还设计并启动了一个推广方案：基于纳米技术的当地高中推广计划(NOAH)。通过与加州大学洛杉矶分校教育学院和当地几所学校合作，该倡议将新开发的便携式仪器与基于纳米技术实验室的模块结合起来，将加强的科学教育带到原本处于不利地位的教室。
