Seeds

In addition to IRG1 and IRG2, CRISP funds a few high-risk/high-reward seed projects that have the potential to develop into IRGs or to obtain external funding. 

Three seeds were completed in June, 2016

  1. Quantum Transductive Media: From Optical Rectification to Coherent Information Processing
  2. Beyond Graphene and Dichalcogenides: Layered Black Phosphorus
  3. Nanoscale Size Effects on Bulk Metallic Glass Nanostructures: In Situ TEM Investigation

A new seed, and one Superseed began in August, 2015

  • Protein-based Materials and Interfaces
  • Understanding and Engineering the Coupling of Qubits to Low-Energy Surface Defects

Three new seeds began in June, 2014

  1.  Designer Transductive Media
  2.  Beyond Graphene and Dichalcogenides: Layered Black Phosphorus
  3.  Nanoscale Size Effects on Bulk Metallic Glass Nanostructures: In Situ TEM Investigation

The two initial seed projects were completed in June, 2014

  1. The Design of Granular Metamaterials
  2. Formation of Aligned Pores with nm Scale Spacing in Semiconductors for Hybrid Device Applications and Green Processing
