Center for Functional NanomaterialsOpening in 1997,the Brookhaven National Laboratory Center for Functional Nanomaterials will provide researchers with state-of-the-art capabilities to fabricate and study nanoscale materials. Functional materials are those which exhibit a predetermined chemical or physical response to external stimuli. The Center’s focus is to achieve a basic understanding of how these materials respond when in nanoscale form.11
Chemistry of MaterialsAmong the research areas of interest are solid-state chemistry, both inorganic and organic, and polymer chemistry, especially as directed to the development of materials with novel and/or useful optical, electrical, magnetic, catalytic, and mechanical properties. Fundamental issues relating to the fabrication and processing of electronic or optical materials and devices is of interest, as well as becoming topics that include chemical and electrochemical modification of surfaces, chemical sensor production, oxidation, and corrosion situations, investigation of polymeric and molecular precursors to solid-state inorganic materials, the preparation and study of biomaterials, liquid crystals, and self-organized molecular assemblies.5
