With new funding from an elite @nsf grant, an interdisciplinary Materials Research Science and Engineering Center will be established. Named Atomically Engineered Materials, or AtEM, the new center will include researchers from @unlchemistry and @unlphysics. They will explore fundamental questions in quantum materials, advancing scientific understanding of ultra-thin materials that are key to faster computers, more energy-efficient artificial intelligence and brain-inspired computing.

“We have a long tradition of making things happen through synergy,” physicist Christian Binek said. “This is not just 16 individuals, but a team of theorists and experimentalists: physicists talking to chemists talking to engineers. These different perspectives focused on the same problem create something that the individual cannot.”
