This Ceramics Program grant supports fundamental research, including combined experiment and theory, in ceramics (e.g., oxides, carbides), glasses, ceramic-based composites, and inorganic carbon-based materials. This grant is for increasing fundamental understanding and developing predictive capabilities for relating material synthesis, processing, and microstructure to their properties and ultimate performance. The development of new experimental techniques or novel approaches is encouraged. Topics supported include basic processes like nucleation, growth, phase transformations, interface structures, and defects across various microstructures, from crystalline to nanostructured. Four-year projects are encouraged, and equipment up to $100,000 may be included. Proposals should detail broader impacts, covering scientific significance, dissemination of results, and broadening participation.

Description: | This program supports fundamental research including combined experiment and theory projects in ceramics (e.g., oxides, carbides, nitrides and borides), glasses, ceramic-based composites and inorganic carbon-based materials. The objective of the program is to increase fundamental understanding and to develop predictive capabilities for relating synthesis, processing, and microstructure of these materials to their properties and ultimate performance in various environments and applications. Development of new experimental techniques or novel approaches to carry out projects is encouraged. Topics supported include basic processes and mechanisms associated with nucleation and growth of thin films; bulk crystal growth; phase transformations and equilibria; morphology; surface modification; corrosion, interfaces and grain boundary structure; and defects. The microstructures investigated range from crystalline, polycrystalline, and amorphous to composite and nanostructured materials. PIs uncertain about whether or not their project is suitable for submission to the Ceramics Program may submit a draft of their NSF Project Summary by e-mail to the Program Director for comment.Four-year projects are encouraged in the Ceramics Program; projects of shorter durations are also welcome. Equipment or instrumentation necessary for the project (typically below $100,000) may be included as part of the budget. PIs are encouraged to include all anticipated broader impact activities (http://www.nsf.gov/pubs/gpg/broaderimpacts.pdf) in their initial proposals, rather than planning on supplemental requests. Most projects include: (1) anticipated significance on science, engineering and/or technology including possible benefits to society, (2) plans for the dissemination of results, and (3) broadening participation of underrepresented groups and/or excellence in one or more of these areas: training, mentoring and teaching. Many successful proposals will include one additional broader impact activity. PIs are encouraged to collaborate with individuals or groups with experience and expertise, as needed, to ensure efficacy. Submission of proposals early (e.g., at the beginning of the submission window) is recommended to allow time for correction of compliance issues. |
