Shared Experimental facilities MATERIALS RESEARCH LABORATORY AT UCSB: AN NSF MRSEC Shared Experimental facilities www.mrl.ucsb.edu 1

In 2017, NSF awarded funding to eight Materials Research Science and Engineering Centers (MRSECs) for transdisciplinary work that covers all areas of materials science and helps foster collaborations on a national and international level. These six-year awards represent a significant new investment in material science exceeding $145M. (www.mrsec.org ) 6th Renewal!!!

SEFs: Core Principles Central, open-access, shared facilities with state-of-the-art instrumentation: Equal access, training and support for ALL users Recharge basis 20+ publications by Technical Directors & staff Active in education and outreach Support for instrumentation development Over 600 publications from SEFs (DMR 1121053, excludes IRG/Seed research) Over 60 publications citing DMR 1720256 (new grant starting 2017) Support: MRSEC funding is critical to maintaining world-class and constantly-evolving SEFs and is leveraged for staff support and facility and equipment upgrades. New instruments supported by MRSEC, and additionally, NSF MRI, NIH, MC-CAM, Dow, UCSB campus contributions, PI start-up and donations, external (non-University) recharge income 3

UCSB SEF: Description of the Facilities Dedicated staff contributing through training, research, education and outreach. Run jointly with the California NanoSystems Institute (Director: Hawker) Partner facilities *TEMPO = Thermal Electronic Magnetic Porosity Optical 3/1/2016 to 2/28/2017: 803 total users billing 39,906 recharge hours. 8272 of the total hours (20 %) were external (non UCSB) users. Support model for staff: 70 % from facilities recharge 15 % from the MRSEC grant 15 % from UCSB and other March 2015. Partner facilities staff not in picture. 4

Shared Experimental Facilities (SEFs) and MRFN (coordinated by Craig Hawker) Dr. Amanda Strom, Technical Director of the TEMPO facility, training users on ICP-AAS. 5

Materials Research Facilities Network: Continued Leadership Recent screengrab of the MRFN website. www.mrfn.org 6

SEFs: Total Space Exceeding 20,000 ASF Elings Hall Microscopy and Microanalysis (Partner Facility) Spectroscopy (NMR, ESR) X-Ray (powder and thin film) Computation (Partner Facility) Energy (photovoltaics) MRL Building (new 2,000 ASF infill space is circled) TEMPO [Thermal, Electronic, Magnetic, Porosity, and Optical] Polymer X-Ray (small and wide angle) Energy (batteries and supercapacitors) 7

SEFs: Recent and Planned Acquisition 400 MHz/ 263 GHz DNP ssNMR: NSF-MRI led by Chmelka (also see IRG-3). Unique for a shared facility in the US. 14 T/10 mK closed-cycle system from Oxford: NSF-MRI led by Stemmer and Wilson. Unique for a shared University facility in the US. Future plans include acquisition of GPU computing nodes, an ultrafast (100 kHz) MAS NMR spinning probe, a thermal conductivity measurement system, and new detectors for scanning electron microscopy. 8

SEFs: Recent Additions in the Polymer Characterization Facility 2015 Acquisition: Waters Acquity H-class UPLC with Xevo G2-XS ToF 2017: Upgrade to Q-ToF 2017 Acquisition: TA Instruments Dynamic Mechanical Analyzer (DMA850) 2016 Acquisition: Waters Acquity Advanced Polymer Characterization (APC) instrument

UCSB SEF: Usage Examples The SEFs play a crucial role in education and training (including of undergraduate interns), in supporting start-up companies, sustaining our longer-term industrial partnerships (Mitsubishi and Dow), and engaging with our PREM partners. External (larger) Industry: Allergan, Chevron, CREE, Honeywell, Lockheed Martin, Nusil, Raytheon, Soraa … Start-ups: Apeel, Fluency Lighting, Next Energy Technologies, Milo Sensors, Soraa Laser … (90 companies total). ; External Academia: Berkeley, Cal Poly SLO, Caltech, Northwestern, Oberlin College, Washington University … (25+ institutions) Professor Catherine Oertel (Oberlin College) and Kristin Denault (former UCSB graduate student) at the TEMPO facility. Kristin continues to use the SEFs to advance for her start-up company. NSF 1121053 acknowledged. 10
