This award supports the continuation of a physics REU Site at San Jose State University (SJSU). An innovative component of the year-round and summer REU Site is collaboration between the University and local high technology industries and national laboratories. These collaborations involve a faculty member, a physicist from industry or a government laboratory, and an REU student. These collaborations leverage the considerable research resources available at SJSU, exposing students to a broad range of research topics and fostering interaction beyond campus boundaries. Students' projects range from development of a stable isotope laser spectrometer for planetary exploration to studies of sonoluminescence, from characterizing nanocrystals to searching for extrasolar planets. Most projects are in the areas of optics, condensed matter, and computational physics since these areas are the major scientific focus in high-tech "Silicon Valley" surrounding the University. Publications and seminars involving faculty mentors and REU student researchers help to ensure that the results of this research are disseminated to the broader scientific community.

该奖项支持物理REU网站在圣何塞州立大学（SJSU）的延续。全年和夏季REU网站的一个创新组成部分是大学与当地高科技产业和国家实验室之间的合作。这些合作涉及一名教师，一名来自工业或政府实验室的物理学家，以及一名REU学生。 这些合作利用SJSU提供的大量研究资源，使学生接触到广泛的研究课题，并促进超越校园界限的互动。学生的项目范围从开发用于行星探索的稳定同位素激光光谱仪到声致发光研究，从表征纳米晶体到搜索太阳系外行星。大多数项目都在光学，凝聚态和计算物理领域，因为这些领域是围绕大学的高科技“硅谷”的主要科学焦点。涉及教师导师和REU学生研究人员的出版物和研讨会有助于确保这项研究的结果传播到更广泛的科学界。
