Summary
Integrated mid-infrared optical microcavity sensors. Toxic or illicit substances such as poisons, drugs and explosives can be identified from the way they absorb specific frequencies of light in the mid-infrared. This project will develop a new kind of molecule-specific, optical sensor capable of detecting trace quantities of such materials.
Development and Application of VO2-based Advanced Nanomaterials for Smart Window Coatings. This project aims to develop innovative strategies for the synthesis and thin film coating of vanadium dioxide nanoparticles, and understand the fundamentals through a comprehensive experimental and theoretical program. The findings aim to then be directly used in developing smart windows that have many applications in various industries. The project aims to significantly expand the knowledge creativity an ....Development and Application of VO2-based Advanced Nanomaterials for Smart Window Coatings.
