In Situ Imaging and Spectroscopy of Tribological Contacts This research will provide in situ imaging and spectroscopic examination of how lubricants organize during sliding in boundary layer films. Designed to respond to recommendations from a recent NSF-commissioned workshop, "Frontiers of Fundamental Tribological Research," it will develops new methods for the in-situ diagnosis of boundary lubrication, primarily using confocal Raman spectroscopy. The intellectual merit is twofold. First, this will develop new understanding of how molecules align and react chemically in boundary lubrication. Second, the methods developed may also find general application in other research groups. The broader impact concerns the integration between research and education. Spectroscopic and imaging techniques new to the field of tribology will be introduced, thereby accomplishing a significant intellectual transfer between disciplines. This laboratory has a good track record of involving women and minority undergraduate researchers. It also has a good track record of female coworkers later finding faculty positions.

摩擦学接触的原位成像和光谱学这项研究将提供润滑剂在边界层膜中滑动过程中如何组织的原位成像和光谱学检查。 旨在响应建议，从最近的NSF委托研讨会，“前沿的基础摩擦学研究”，它将开发新的方法，原位诊断边界润滑，主要是使用共焦拉曼光谱。 智力上的优点是双重的。 首先，这将发展新的理解如何分子排列和化学反应在边界润滑。 其次，所开发的方法也可能在其他研究小组中得到普遍应用。 更广泛的影响涉及研究和教育之间的整合。 将引入摩擦学领域的新光谱和成像技术，从而实现学科之间的重大知识转移。 该实验室在妇女和少数民族本科研究人员的参与方面有着良好的记录。 它也有一个良好的记录，女性同事后来找到教师职位。
