Center for Interface Design and Engineered Assembly of Low-Dimensional Systems (IDEALS)With National Science Foundation support, CUNY City College, will establish the Center for Interface Design and Engineered Assembly of Low-dimensional Systems (IDEALS). The Center will address the national need for accelerating the pace of discovery and deployment of advanced materials to address critical needs and grand challenges, such as clean energy, national security, and human welfare. The goal of the Center is to design and discover materials with new and enhanced functionalities to further technology, energy and health applications. Twenty two researchers from Chemistry, Physics, and Chemical, Biomedical and Electrical Engineering departments from partner institutions will employ experimental, analytical and numerical modelling tools to design and discover complex novel materials with new and enhanced functionalities, and integrate education and research to enhance both enterprises within the Center. Along with the research goals, the Center will enhance the educational experience of students, and use proven and innovative approaches to recruit and retain students from underrepresented groups in order to produce a diverse workforce of materials science and engineering leaders trained for careers in academia or industry, including high-tech manufacturing jobs. Center research efforts are organized into three interdisciplinary and cross-pollinating subprojects: (1) Low-Dimensional Functional Materials and Nano-Heterostructures (2) Bio-inspired Re-Configurable Materials; and (3) Novel Materials Probes and Design Formalism. Synergy among the three subprojects stems from their thematic overlap and complementarity. Similarities in approaches of material synthesis, characterization and theoretical/computational methods also serve to ensure that links will be forged, leading to new discoveries. Two frontier materials systems will be investigated in the Center: crystalline layered materials and engineered superlattices and aggregated bio-molecular or hybrid materials. A suite of sophisticated tools and theoretical approaches will be developed and deployed to investigate the materials and explore their functionality and potential applications in areas as diverse as energy generation, sensing, quantum computing, and medical diagnosis and treatment of cancer.

在美国国家科学基金会的支持下，纽约市立大学城市学院将建立低维系统界面设计和工程组装中心（IDEALS）。 该中心将满足国家对加快发现和部署先进材料的步伐的需求，以满足关键需求和重大挑战，如清洁能源，国家安全和人类福利。该中心的目标是设计和发现具有新功能和增强功能的材料，以促进技术，能源和健康应用。 来自合作机构的化学，物理，化学，生物医学和电气工程部门的22名研究人员将采用实验，分析和数值建模工具来设计和发现具有新功能和增强功能的复杂新型材料，并整合教育和研究，以增强中心内的企业。沿着研究目标，该中心将提高学生的教育经验，并使用成熟和创新的方法来招募和保留学生从代表性不足的群体，以产生材料科学和工程领导者培训的职业生涯在学术界或工业，包括高科技制造业的工作多样化的劳动力。 中心的研究工作分为三个跨学科和交叉授粉的子项目：（1）低维功能材料和纳米异质结构（2）生物启发的可重新配置材料;和（3）新材料探针和设计形式主义。这三个次级项目之间的协同作用源于其专题的重叠和互补。材料合成、表征和理论/计算方法的相似性也有助于确保建立联系，从而导致新的发现。该中心将研究两种前沿材料系统：结晶层状材料和工程超晶格以及聚集的生物分子或混合材料。一套复杂的工具和理论方法将被开发和部署，以研究这些材料，并探索它们的功能和潜在应用领域，如能源生产，传感，量子计算，医疗诊断和癌症治疗。
