A Materials Research Science and Engineering Center: Sensor Materials For Control and Diagnostics

[809688] gold密歇根州立大学的材料研究科学与工程中心（MRSEC）专注于用于控制和诊断的传感材料。该中心还为传感器材料的新机会提供种子资金。该中心支持教育推广工作，包括为本科生提供研究经验，并通过为初中科学教师举办动手讲习班，将教育推广到大学前水平。MRSEC还支持对中心参与者和外部用户开放的共享实验设施，以及广泛的工业推广工作。该MRSEC的研究分为两个跨学科研究小组。一组强调光学探头对发动机诊断和传感至关重要。第二组探索将化学和物理信息转化为电信号的各种转导方法。中心现有高级研究员21人，博士后3人，研究生11人，本科生8人，行政支持人员1人。Brage Golding教授是MRSEC的负责人。

9809688GoldingThe Materials Research Science and Engineering Center (MRSEC) at Michigan State University focuses on sensing materials for control and diagnostics. The Center also provides seed funding for new opportunities in sensor materials. The Center supports education outreach efforts that include research experiences for undergraduates and outreach to the pre-college level through hands-on workshops for junior high school science teachers. The MRSEC also supports shared experimental facilities that are accessible to center participants and to outside users, and broad industrial outreach efforts.Research in this MRSEC is organized into two interdisciplinary research groups. One group emphasizes optical probes of processes critical to engine diagnostics and sensing. A second group explores various transduction methods for transforming chemical and physical information into electrical signals. Participants in the Center currently include 21 senior investigators, 3 postdoctoral associates, 11 graduate students, 8 undergraduates, and one administrative support personnel. Professor Brage Golding directs the MRSEC.
