The objective of this research is to understand, predict, and control the phase transitions occurring in structurally ordered thin films to enable the rational design, synthesis, and utilization of…

Model oxide defects with vicinally stepped NiO(100) substrates

Lead Institution
University of Nebraska - Lincoln
Principal Investigator
Marjorie Langell
Project type
Large-Scale EMSL Research
We propose atomic force microscopy (AFM) studies of vicinally-stepped NiO(001) substrates designed to present periodic surface atomic edge sites and narrow terraces of constant atomic width. The…

Molecular understanding of nutrient sorption on model mineral surfaces

Lead Institution
Oregon State University
Principal Investigator
Kelsey Stoerzinger
Project type
Large-Scale EMSL Research
Iron (Fe)-containing minerals exert a significant influence on soil and sediment geochemistry, such as the cycling of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) nutrients in the bioavailable form of dissolved…
