项目摘要

NON-TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION: This project brings undergraduates to the University of Florida to conduct research on the physics of materials and their applications. Having students conduct research while an undergraduate is one of the best ways to encourage them to continue in science, technology, and engineering education. Applications come from across the United States, and there is a special emphasis on recruiting and accepting students from schools with limited research opportunities and from underrepresented groups in science and engineering. For many students this is their first and perhaps only opportunity to experience advanced scientific research. The research conducted lays the scientific foundation for the next generation of materials used in a myriad of applications.TECHNICAL DETAILS: Each student works with a faculty mentor from physics, chemistry or materials science and engineering, alongside other members of their research group in a 10-week program. The research topics include: measuring the electronic, magnetic, thermal, and optical properties of nanometer scale materials, growing new materials including superconductors and those with topological properties, and computational modeling of electronic and biomaterials. The research conducted lays the foundation for applications of new materials. Students in the program attend professional development workshops on written and oral communication, applying to graduate school, cutting edge scientific research, and visit scientific facilities both on and off the University of Florida campus. The students become sufficiently knowledgeable in their research area that they give tours of their research labs during week 6 of the program. At the end of the program participants write a 10 to 20-page paper and give a presentation on their research. Many participants also present their results at scientific meetings and/or publish their results.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.

非技术描述：该项目将本科生带到佛罗里达大学进行材料物理及其应用的研究。让学生进行研究，而本科生是鼓励他们继续在科学，技术和工程教育的最佳途径之一。申请来自美国各地，特别强调从研究机会有限的学校以及科学和工程领域代表性不足的群体中招募和接受学生。对于许多学生来说，这是他们第一次，也许是唯一一次体验先进科学研究的机会。该研究为下一代材料在众多应用中的应用奠定了科学基础。技术支持：每个学生与来自物理，化学或材料科学与工程的教师导师一起工作，与他们的研究小组的其他成员一起参加为期10周的课程。研究课题包括：测量纳米尺度材料的电子、磁性、热和光学性质，生长新材料，包括超导体和具有拓扑性质的材料，以及电子和生物材料的计算建模。所进行的研究为新材料的应用奠定了基础。该计划的学生参加书面和口头交流的专业发展研讨会，申请研究生院，尖端科学研究，并参观佛罗里达大学校园内外的科学设施。学生们在他们的研究领域变得足够的知识，他们给他们的研究实验室在该计划的第6周期间的图尔斯。在项目结束时，参与者写一篇10到20页的论文，并介绍他们的研究。许多参与者还在科学会议上展示他们的成果和/或发表他们的成果。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并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，被认为值得支持。
