Columbia MRSEC on Advanced Electronic Materials (AEM) - DMR-2614607
The Columbia University Materials Research Science and Engineering Center (MRSEC) for Advanced Electronic Materials (AEM) united scientists and engineers to pioneer research in semiconductor technologies, quantum materials, optoelectronic materials, and energy transport. AEM develops innovative materials to drive new scientific discoveries and advance next-generation semiconductor and quantum technologies through two IRGs. IRG1 establishes a new materials paradigm for next-generation information systems with nearly dissipation-free information transport. IRG2 creates a new generation of quantum metamaterials. AEM's research efforts are amplified by deep collaborations with CCNY, the Flatiron Institute, Brookhaven National Laboratory, and the Max Planck Institute. Alongside its research on coherent information flow and quantum matter, AEM is committed to educational outreach to achieve workforce development in STEM across the U.S., and to increase participation in STEM at all levels.
