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
- Quantum Transductive Media: From Optical Rectification to Coherent Information Processing
- Beyond Graphene and Dichalcogenides: Layered Black Phosphorus
- 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
- Designer Transductive Media
- Beyond Graphene and Dichalcogenides: Layered Black Phosphorus
- Nanoscale Size Effects on Bulk Metallic Glass Nanostructures: In Situ TEM Investigation
The two initial seed projects were completed in June, 2014
- The Design of Granular Metamaterials
- Formation of Aligned Pores with nm Scale Spacing in Semiconductors for Hybrid Device Applications and Green Processing
