NER: Diameter Specific Separations of Carbon Nanotubes for 3D Nanoassembling

提案编号：0404193机构：北卡罗来纳州夏洛特大学校长：Poler，约旦标题：NER：直径特定分离的碳纳米管的三维纳米组装摘要：该项目将开发组装，加工和操纵纳米材料的新方法。通过研究刚性分子和碳纳米管之间的机械键，这项研究将导致这些纳米材料的高度纯化的解决方案，从而使纳米管组件的三维纳米结构化成为可能。这项研究将在几个层次上影响学生。 硕士和本科生将参与这项研究的大部分，这可能会影响他们的科学哲学和他们作为教师和研究人员的方向。 在这项研究中开发的分子模型，将被用来组装一个“可视化工具箱”，可以通过互联网带入高中。 这些活动将对全国中学生的科技教育产生深远的影响。

PROPOSAL NO: 0404193INSTITUTION: U of NC CharlottePRINCIPAL INVESTIGATOR: Poler , JordanTITLE: NER: Diameter specific Separations of Carbon Nanotubes for 3DNanoassemblingAbstract: This project will develop new methods of assembling, processing and manipulating nanoscale materials. By examining the mechanical bonds between rigid molecules and carbon nanotubes, this research will result in a highly purified solution of these nano-materials, thereby enabling three-dimensional nanostructuring of nanotube assemblies.This research will impact students at several levels. Master's and undergraduate students will be involved in much of this research, which can impact their philosophies of science and their directions as teachers and researchers. Molecular models, developed in this research, will be used to assemble a "visualization toolbox" that can be brought into the high schools through the Internet. These activities can have nation-wide impact on the science and technology education of high school students.
