This REU Site award to the University of South Dakota (USD), located in Vermillion, SD, supports the training of 6 students for 10 weeks during the summers of 2018-2020. This site is supported by the Department of Defense in partnership with the NSF Chemistry Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) Sites program. This research program is in USD's Department of Chemistry and provides students with research opportunities in different aspects of fluorine chemistry. Students participate in workshops covering safety issues that are particular to fluorine chemistry, as well as in workshops on analytical chemistry that relate to the characterization of halogen-containing substances. In addition to research activities, the students take part in weekly meetings to discuss scientific issues related to fluorine chemistry, the process of commercialization, and graduate school opportunities. Communication of research results, both during and following the research experience, is also emphasized. The University of South Dakota is well situated geographically to serve both Native American and small primarily undergraduate institution student populations. Student research projects are integrated into the existing Center for Fluorinated Functional Materials (CFFM), a state-funded research center in the Department of Chemistry at USD.Fluorine chemistry is increasingly vital in the pharmaceutical industry and in materials science applications, particularly in the fields of renewable energy and battery technology. Faculty in the USD Department of Chemistry offer a diverse array of research projects related to fluorine chemistry including the synthesis of fluorinated monomers used in luminescence sensors and electronic devices; inorganic doped lanthanum fluoride upconversion nanoparticles for forensic applications; electrochemical deposition of fluorine monomers for battery technology; fluorine-carbon bond activation and catalysis; analytical surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy detection of agrochemicals; and computational fluorine chemistry. Students benefit from meeting weekly as a group to discuss the different opportunities, applications and hazards of fluorine chemistry. Students also meet with recognized leaders in the field who are current members of the CFFM advisory board. This REU site represents a unique opportunity to train a future workforce in the theoretical and practical aspects of fluorine chemistry.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

这个REU网站奖给南达科他州（美元），位于Vermillion，SD的大学，支持6名学生在2018年至2020年的夏天10周的培训。该网站由国防部与NSF本科生化学研究经验（REU）网站计划合作支持。该研究项目在USD的化学系，为学生提供氟化学不同方面的研究机会。学生参加的讲习班涵盖的安全问题，特别是氟化学，以及在分析化学的讲习班，涉及到含卤素物质的特性。除了研究活动，学生参加每周会议，讨论与氟化学，商业化的过程，和研究生院的机会的科学问题。研究结果的沟通，无论是在研究过程中和之后的经验，也强调。南达科他州大学地理位置优越，为美洲原住民和小型本科院校学生提供服务。学生的研究项目被整合到现有的含氟功能材料中心（CFFM），这是一个国家资助的研究中心，位于USD化学系。氟化学在制药行业和材料科学应用中越来越重要，特别是在可再生能源和电池技术领域。化学的USD部门的教师提供与氟化学相关的各种研究项目，包括用于发光传感器和电子设备的氟化单体的合成;用于法医应用的无机掺杂氟化镧上转换纳米粒子;用于电池技术的氟单体的电化学沉积;氟碳键活化和催化;农用化学品的分析表面增强拉曼光谱检测;和计算氟化学。学生们每周以小组形式开会讨论氟化学的不同机会、应用和危害。 学生还会见了谁是CFFM咨询委员会的现任成员在该领域的公认的领导人。这个REU网站代表了一个独特的机会，培养未来的劳动力在氟化学的理论和实践方面。这个奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并已被认为是值得通过评估使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准的支持。
