项目摘要

This award from the Major Research Instrumentation Program is to support the acquisition of the Physical Properties Measurement System VersaLab by Quantum Design. This instrument will be used in a variety of research areas to perform electrical, magnetic, and thermal measurements over a wide range of applied magnetic fields and temperatures. Thus, this will enable research to be conducted in cutting-edge technologies such as nanoelectronics, molecular magnets, organic semiconductors, non-volatile memories, photovoltaics, solid-state batteries, materials for post-silicon electronics, and biomedical technology. It will be used by faculty from the Physics & Astronomy, Chemistry, Materials, Mechanical, Biomedical, and Electrical Engineering departments at San Jose State University (SJSU). The VersaLab will foster collaboration across multiple departments within SJSU, as well as between SJSU and surrounding universities, community colleges, private sector, and national labs. The instrument will be incorporated into the curriculum of several SJSU laboratory classes with the goal to improve undergraduate and graduate STEM education. We hope that by involving undergraduates in research at an early point in their education, we may attract more of them into the field of STEM, particularly women and underrepresented groups. SJSU has one of the most diverse student populations in the United States and has been recognized as a Hispanic Serving Institution (HSI) and an Asian American Native American Pacific Islander Serving Institution (AANAPISI). VersaLab will significantly improve research and education of minority students, enabling them to pursue technical careers in Silicon Valley or obtain graduate degrees. Physical Properties Measurement System VersaLab from Quantum Design is a user-friendly, cryogen-free cryocooler-based, and fully automated turn-key instrument. It is perfect for accomplishing many types of materials characterization in a magnetic field up to 3 Tesla and over a temperature range 50-1000 K. It consists of the Base system and add-on options for magnetometry, and measurements of ac magnetic susceptibility, ferromagnetic resonance, electrical transport, thermal transport, and heat capacity. This will support studies of magnetic materials for spintronics applications, inverse spin-Hall effect, organic spintronics, molecular magnetism, semiconductor nanostructures for energy production, electrical and thermal conductivities of hierarchical materials, solid state batteries, tissue-mimicking materials, and multiple other projects. VersaLab instrument will greatly enhance present material characterization capabilities at SJSU and open new directions in the research of the involved faculty. The ability to fully characterize magnetic, electrical, and thermal properties of materials is critical to many of the SJSU faculty.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.

主要研究仪器计划的这一奖项是为了支持Quantum Design收购物理性能测量系统VersaLab。该仪器将用于各种研究领域，在广泛的应用磁场和温度范围内进行电，磁和热测量。因此，这将使研究能够在尖端技术，如纳米电子学，分子磁体，有机半导体，非易失性存储器，光电子学，固态电池，后硅电子材料和生物医学技术方面进行。它将由圣何塞州立大学（SJSU）的物理天文学、化学、材料、机械、生物医学和电气工程系的教师使用。VersaLab将促进SJSU内多个部门之间的合作，以及SJSU与周边大学，社区学院，私营部门和国家实验室之间的合作。该仪器将被纳入几个SJSU实验室课程的课程，目标是提高本科生和研究生STEM教育。我们希望，通过让本科生在教育的早期参与研究，我们可以吸引更多的本科生进入STEM领域，特别是女性和代表性不足的群体。SJSU拥有美国最多样化的学生群体之一，并被公认为西班牙裔服务机构（HSI）和亚裔美国土著太平洋岛民服务机构（AANAPISI）。VersaLab将显著改善少数族裔学生的研究和教育，使他们能够在硅谷从事技术职业或获得研究生学位。Quantum Design的物理性能测量系统VersaLab是一款用户友好、基于无制冷剂低温冷却器的全自动交钥匙仪器。它非常适合在高达3特斯拉的磁场和50-1000 K的温度范围内完成许多类型的材料表征。它包括基本系统和附加选项，用于磁力测量，以及交流磁化率，铁磁共振，电输运，热输运和热容的测量。这将支持用于自旋电子学应用的磁性材料，逆自旋霍尔效应，有机自旋电子学，分子磁性，用于能源生产的半导体纳米结构，分层材料的电导率和热导率，固态电池，组织模拟材料和多个其他项目的研究。VersaLab仪器将大大提高SJSU目前的材料表征能力，并为相关教师的研究开辟新的方向。充分表征材料的磁、电和热特性的能力对SJSU的许多教师来说至关重要。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并被认为值得通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估来支持。
