With this award from the Major Research Instrumentation Program and the Chemistry Division, Professor Geoffrey Strouse from Florida State University and colleague William Cooper will acquire a new console and probes for a 500 MHz wide bore nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectrometer for solids. The award will enhance research in areas such as (a) studies of microenvironments in quantum dots (QD), (b) biogeochemistry of natural organic compounds in surface waters, ground waters and soil pore waters, (c) nanofibers composed of designer peptides, (d) intermetallics and Zintl phases, (e) metal supported catalysts, (f) ferroelectric phase transitions, (g) live-cell metabolite analysis, (h) structural analysis of biomimetic nanotechnologies (i) identification of natural products, and (j) soil organic carbon dynamics in tropical forests. NMR spectroscopy is one of the most widely used analytical tools used by chemists to investigate the content and structure of materials and solids. It is used to identify unknown substances, to characterize specific arrangements of atoms within molecules, and probe the microenvironments in solid state materials. The results from these NMR studies will have a positive impact on studies of bio-inspired materials, polymers, and environmentally relevant materials. The instrument will be an integral part of teaching as well as research. It will be shared with faculty and students at Florida A&M University and Valdosta State University, and researchers at Tyndall AFB and the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute in Panama.

有了这个奖项从主要研究仪器计划和化学部，教授杰弗里Strouse从佛罗里达州立大学和同事威廉库珀将获得一个新的控制台和探头的500兆赫宽口径核磁共振（NMR）光谱仪的固体。该奖项将加强以下领域的研究：（a）量子点微环境研究，（B）地表沃茨、地下沃茨和土壤孔隙沃茨中天然有机化合物的地球化学，（c）由设计肽组成的纳米纤维，（d）金属间化合物和Zintl相，（e）金属负载催化剂，（f）铁电相变，（g）活细胞代谢物分析，（h）仿生纳米技术的结构分析;（i）天然产品的鉴定;（j）热带森林土壤有机碳动态。 NMR光谱是化学家用来研究材料和固体的含量和结构的最广泛使用的分析工具之一。 它用于识别未知物质，表征分子内原子的特定排列，并探测固态材料中的微环境。 这些NMR研究的结果将对生物启发材料，聚合物和环境相关材料的研究产生积极影响。 该仪器将成为教学和研究的一个组成部分。 它将与佛罗里达A M大学和瓦尔多斯塔州立大学的师生，以及廷德尔空军基地和巴拿马史密森热带研究所的研究人员分享。
