The CEM introduced cutting-edge materials research to participants in the first mentoring event of 2010 for Ohio’s STEM Ability Alliance (OSAA), an NSF-funded Alliance for Students with Disabilities in STEM that works to increase the number of students with disabilities that complete STEM degrees. CEM Fellows Mike Hinton (Physics), Alex Holcomb (Materials Science and Engineering), and Trish Meyer (Chemistry) gave 14 undergraduate OSAA fellows and their mentors a first-hand view of pulsed laser deposition of thin films and shared the potential applications of IRG-2’s research into double perovskite interfaces and heterostructures.
