0548950Deepak BhatDescription: This award supports the U.S.-India Planning Visit for Developing Collaborative Research on Carbon Nanotube Synthesis, Applications and Undergraduate Education Curriculum Development. PI Bhat, University of Arkansas will visit Professors S. Ramaprabhu and V.D.Vankar of the Indian Institutes of Technology (IIT) in Chennai and Delhi to finalize a research and education initiative in nanotechnology. There has been substantial interaction before face-to-face meetings take place to discuss the research programs at these institutions, assess the laboratory facilities and review nanotechnology course curriculum. These leading institutions in India have active programs on applications of carbon nanotubes (CNT) in field emission devices, fuel cells and electrocatalysis. The collaboration will leverage that expertise. Scope: This project deals with an important scientific problem and will integrate research and education in nanotechnlogy. The Indian researchers have the facilities and programs for developing cutting-edge applications for CNTs in critical engineering fields. These resources complement Dr. Bhat's industrial R&D experience in chemical vapor deposition technology and his expertise in developing patented methods for use with advanced ceramic composites. All investigators are motivated to develop an innovative education model that will attract talented students to nanotechnology. The Division of Design and Manufacturing Innovation is providing cofunding for this award.

0548950 Deepak Bhat描述：该奖项支持美国-印度规划访问，以发展碳纳米管合成，应用和本科教育课程开发的合作研究。 阿肯色州的PI Bhat将访问S. Ramaprabhu和V.D.Vankar在钦奈和德里的印度理工学院（IIT）完成了纳米技术的研究和教育计划。 在面对面的会议之前，已经有了大量的互动，以讨论这些机构的研究计划，评估实验室设施和审查纳米技术课程。 印度的这些领先机构在碳纳米管（CNT）在场发射器件、燃料电池和电催化方面的应用方面有着积极的计划。 合作将利用这一专门知识。 范围：该项目涉及一个重要的科学问题，并将整合纳米技术的研究和教育。 印度研究人员拥有在关键工程领域开发CNT尖端应用的设施和计划。 这些资源补充了Bhat博士在化学气相沉积技术方面的工业研发经验，以及他在开发先进陶瓷复合材料专利方法方面的专业知识。 所有的研究人员都有动力开发一种创新的教育模式，将吸引有才华的学生到纳米技术。 设计和制造创新部为该奖项提供共同资助。
