The Materials Research Science and Engineering Center (MRSEC) at the Ohio State University (OSU), titled Center for Emergent Materials (CEM), performs integrated research on emergent materials and phenomena in magnetoelectronics. The aim of the Center research activities is to advance understanding of the emergent materials and phenomena and to develop highly sophisticated experimental and theoretical tools required to study them, which will lay down the scientific foundation for building future oxide-based electronic devices that can perform multiple functions, and energy-efficient, fast computers that have integrated memory and logic. The Center has two interdisciplinary research groups (IRGs). IRG 1, Towards Spin-Preserving, Heterogeneous Spin Networks, will develop a new understanding of electron-spin injection and transport in low-dimensional, spin-preserving materials such as silicon and carbon. This understanding provides a new materials basis for creating novel high-density spin networks for next-generation computing. IRG 2, Double Perovskite Interfaces and Heterostructures, designs and controls multifunctional properties of innovative double perovskite heterostructures through the understanding of structure, defects, and magnetotransport properties at interfaces. This new knowledge of magnetism in metallic oxides enables important advances in the emerging field of oxide-based electronics. The IRGs are complemented by a Seed Funding program, which provides the necessary flexibility and vitality to CEM in responding swiftly and effectively to the rapidly-changing materials research landscape. Integrated with the research activities, CEM enhances classroom education, creates research internship opportunities, widens the Science-Technology-Engineering-Math (STEM) "pipeline," and enhances diversity in STEM. Activities include an innovative education research program aimed at cognition of materials science concepts, K-12 outreach and visitation programs, undergraduate research programs, and graduate-education enhancement programs. The multidisciplinary OSU materials community is already home to major world-class shared experimental facilities, which are brought to bear on CEM research and education. The Center collaborates with the electronics, storage, and instrumentation industries; national laboratories and institutes; other U.S. universities; and international universities and laboratories in China, India, Germany, and United Kingdom.

俄亥俄州州立大学（OSU）的材料研究科学与工程中心（MRSEC）名为“涌现材料中心”（CEM），对磁电子学中的涌现材料和现象进行综合研究。该中心研究活动的目的是促进对新兴材料和现象的理解，并开发研究它们所需的高度复杂的实验和理论工具，这将为构建未来的氧化物电子设备奠定科学基础，这些设备可以执行多种功能，以及具有集成存储器和逻辑的节能，快速计算机。该中心有两个跨学科研究小组（IRG）。IRG 1，走向自旋保持，异质自旋网络，将开发一个新的理解电子自旋注入和低维，自旋保持材料，如硅和碳的运输。这种理解为为下一代计算创建新型高密度自旋网络提供了新的材料基础。IRG 2，双钙钛矿界面和异质结构，设计和控制创新的双钙钛矿异质结构的多功能特性，通过了解界面的结构，缺陷和磁输运特性。金属氧化物磁性的这一新知识使新兴的氧化物电子学领域取得了重要进展。IRG由种子资金计划补充，该计划为CEM提供了必要的灵活性和活力，以快速有效地应对快速变化的材料研究领域。与研究活动相结合，CEM增强了课堂教育，创造了研究实习机会，拓宽了科学-技术-工程-数学（STEM）“管道”，并增强了STEM的多样性。活动包括一个创新的教育研究计划，旨在认知材料科学概念，K-12推广和访问计划，本科研究计划和研究生教育增强计划。多学科的俄勒冈州立大学材料社区已经是主要的世界级共享实验设施的所在地，这些设施被用于CEM研究和教育。该中心与电子，存储和仪器仪表行业;国家实验室和研究所;其他美国大学;以及中国，印度，德国和英国的国际大学和实验室合作。
