The agencies are funding 20 projects to be conducted across 24 institutions through the Disaster Resilience Research Grant (DRRG) program, which they manage
Researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and Columbia Engineering have discovered a new method to improve the toughness of
All inorganic materials contain point defects in the form of impurities, interstitials, or vacancies. Common imaging techniques fail to capture these defects
Our goal is to enable the development and manufacturing of biomaterials for oral health moving forward in 21st century by providing critical measurement methods
Nanotube metrology improvement is a significant effort in the Particles, Tubes and Colloids project dedicated to improving the measurement methods for, and

Cure kinetics of epoxy molding compounds (EMCs) is a fundamental material property that affects the molding process of semiconductor chips and final package
Retrofit and repair of structures occur under differing circumstances but are both necessary to improve existing building stock and increase resilience of
CLIP is an analysis program for fluorescence lifetime images. It provides the user with the ability to fit or calculate the phasor plots for lifetime decays
Description High-throughput (combinatorial) metrologies have evolved as a useful approach to rapidly determine the composition-structure-property relationships
Positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy uses positrons to probe material defects/voids/free volume at the sub-nm scale. The general working principle is
The XAFS station uses a tunable, monochromatic, and moderately high energy X-ray beam (4.5 keV to 23.5 keV) for X-ray absorption spectroscopy measurements. The
Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) Spectroscopy is a spectroscopic technique in which the vibrational modes of the molecules comprising a material of interest
