This award is funded in whole or in part under the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (Public Law 117-2). The Centers of Research Excellence in Science and Technology (CREST) program supports the enhancement of research capabilities of minority-serving institutions through the establishment of centers that effectively integrate education and research. CREST promotes the development of new knowledge, enhancements of the research productivity of individual faculty, and an expanded presence of students historically underrepresented in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics disciplines. With National Science Foundation support, CUNY City College will continue development of its Phase II Center for Interface Design and Engineered Assembly of Low-dimensional Systems (IDEALS II). Building upon the salient accomplishments of Phase I IDEALS (IDEALS I), IDEALS II research intends to address the need to strengthen the nation’s leadership in materials capabilities in the frontier areas of quantum materials, bioinspired reconfigurable materials, and photonic materials and technologies that address critical national needs, elevating CCNY as a premier research institution in these fields. Phase II Center investigators and students will pursue frontier research and education transformative goals through extending collaborations, created a multifaced cutting-edge materials research program, fully integrate research and education to enhance student experience and train tomorrow’s leaders, and introduce the City College New York Presidential Postdoctoral Fellowship Program to enhance faculty diversity. The research thrusts of the NSF Phase II CREST Center for Interface Design and Engineered Assembly of Low-dimensional Systems (IDEALS II) at the City College of New York (CCNY), encompass the frontier areas of quantum materials, bioinspired reconfigurable materials and photonic phenomena to address energy, health, and environmental needs. The multi-disciplinary, collaborative research activities are organized into three thematic Subprojects. Subproject 1, entitled, Emergent Quantum Materials and Functions, will focus on materials science and engineering of two-dimensional systems, such as, surfaces and interfaces where band topology and strong electron correlations lead to new functions and quantum phenomena for the next-generation quantum technologies. Zero-dimensional systems, such as, quantum dots and rare-earth ions in host matrices will be utilized as platforms for implementing spin qubits that circumvent the limitations of current schemes of quantum computation. Subproject 2, Bio-inspired, Re-configurable Materials to Scale, focuses on scalability of reconfigurable materials (materials that change their properties by adapting to an external stimulus) developed in Phase I and further explores their specific applications in light harvesting, medical diagnostics and cancer therapy as well as sustainability and environmental rehabilitation. Subproject 3, Frontiers of Photonic Materials, Phenomena and Devices will explore emerging basic ideas, synthesize new materials (such as, hybrid semiconductor heterostructures, topological nanostructures) with unprecedented functionalities, investigate salient properties of the engineered materials, design and test devices (light sources, detectors and quantum sensors) based on promising materials, and provide feedback for materials and device design criteria. The seed project approach will be used as a mechanism for the nucleation of new ideas and exploration of areas of opportunity and growth. An integrated research and education thrust, will continue to apply the proven interventions developed and implemented in IDEALS I, and introduce new ones, to help produce a talented, inclusive and diverse work force capable of leading the materials research and development endeavors in the 21st century.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.

该奖项的全部或部分资金来自《2021年美国救援计划法案》(公法117-2)。科学和技术卓越研究中心(CREST)计划通过建立有效整合教育和研究的中心，支持加强少数群体服务机构的研究能力。CREST促进了新知识的发展，提高了个别教师的研究效率，并扩大了在科学、技术、工程和数学学科中历来代表性不足的学生的存在。在国家科学基金会的支持下，CUNY城市学院将继续发展其接口设计和低维系统工程组装(Ideas II)第二阶段中心。在第一阶段Ideas(Ideas I)显著成就的基础上，Ideas II研究旨在解决在满足国家关键需求的量子材料、生物启发可重构材料和光子材料和技术等前沿领域加强国家材料能力方面的国家领导地位的需要，使CCNY成为这些领域的一流研究机构。第二阶段中心的研究人员和学生将通过扩大合作来追求前沿研究和教育转型的目标，创建一个多层面的尖端材料研究计划，充分整合研究和教育以增强学生体验并培养未来的领导者，并引入城市学院纽约总统博士后奖学金计划以增强教师多样性。纽约市立大学(CCNY)NSF第二阶段接口设计和低维系统工程组装中心(Ideas II)的研究重点包括量子材料、生物灵感可重构材料和光子现象等前沿领域，以满足能源、健康和环境需求。多学科协作研究活动分为三个专题分项目。子项目1，新兴量子材料和功能，将侧重于材料科学和二维系统的工程，如表面和界面，其中能带拓扑和强电子关联导致下一代量子技术的新功能和量子现象。零维系统，如宿主矩阵中的量子点和稀土离子，将被用作实现自旋量子比特的平台，以绕过当前量子计算方案的限制。子项目2，生物启发，可重新配置材料的规模，重点是第一阶段开发的可重新配置材料(通过适应外部刺激来改变其特性的材料)的可扩展性，并进一步探讨其在采光、医疗诊断和癌症治疗以及可持续性和环境恢复方面的具体应用。子项目3，光子材料、现象和器件的前沿将探索新兴的基本概念，合成具有前所未有的功能的新材料(如杂化半导体异质结构、拓扑纳米结构)，研究工程材料的显著性质，基于有前途的材料设计和测试器件(光源、探测器和量子传感器)，并为材料和器件设计标准提供反馈。种子项目方法将被用作形成新想法和探索机会和增长领域的一种机制。作为一个综合的研究和教育推动力，将继续应用理想I中开发和实施的经过验证的干预措施，并引入新的干预措施，以帮助培养一支有才华、包容和多样化的劳动力，能够领导21世纪的材料研究和开发工作。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
