Determination of pore structure in highly porous silica oxide powders

Lead Institution
Pacific Northwest National Laboratory
Principal Investigator
Leonard Fifield
Project type
Exploratory Research
The performance of self-assembled monolayers on mesoporous supports (SAMMS) in many applications is greatly dependent on the nanoscale structure of the mesoporous support material used. The objective…

Characterization of Functional Nanoscale Materials for Vapor Sensing

Lead Institution
Pacific Northwest National Laboratory
Principal Investigator
Christopher Aardahl
