In this project, we are developing metrology needed for the synthesis, processing, and characterization of semiconductor nanowire structures to enable reliable
Understanding and measuring synthesis-structure-property relationship at nanoscale is a fundamental step for designing nanoscale structures such as nanotubes
Elastic springback compensation is a long-standing issue for formed sheet automotive components. The ability to predict the magnitude of springback as a
In 2013, we hit a roadblock. We understood that spin waves propagated through materials, but we didn't understand why some interfaces transmitted these waves so
Our goal is to develop critical measurement solutions that enable nanomanufacturing with template guided block copolymer assembly for next generation magnetic
Project goal is to develop a fully-instrumented version of the tension-compression test, to enable measurement of the Bauschinger Effect in sheet metal, and to
We are developing a method to measure and regulate temperature throughout a three dimensional volume with Systeme International (SI)-traceable Thermal Magnetic
Industry needs thermodynamic and kinetic data for the development of new materials for sustainable energy applications; expanded and new databases are needed
The vision of the Materials Genome Initiative (MGI) is a new R&D paradigm enabling accelerated materials development at lower cost via an increased reliance on
Using X-ray diffraction techniques one can measure the full stress tensor just inside the surface of a sheet metal specimen under applied load. For experiments
In order to calculate the stresses that develop within a formed part, and thereby compensate for such things as elastic springback, it is necessary for the
