Description
The Nanomanufacturing program supports fundamental research and education on design and manufacturing at the nanoscale. Emphasis of the program is on advancing manufacturing technology using production systems based on thermal, electrical, chemical and mechanical processes as well as biological actors (viruses, cells and bacteria) to fabricate nanostructures and to integrate these into micro-devices and meso- and macroscale systems. Examples include carbon, polymeric and bio-molecular architectures that exploit nanoscale features for nanomotors, nanorobots, and other nanomachinery. A goal of the program is to enable manufacturing scalability leading to commercial production, including improvements in component reliability, yield, efficiency and affordability. The program also targets environmental health and safety in nanomanufacturing.The Nanomanufacturing program does not support research that focuses on analysis, synthesis or macroscale processing of nanomaterials, which is supported in the Division of Materials Research (DMR).Investigators wishing to serve on a proposal review panel should email the Program Director with a short biographical sketch, a list of areas of expertise and/or a link to their home page. REU/RET supplement requests should be submitted by March 31 each year.
