Juan Fernandez de la Mora Prize

The study of nanometer particles at high resolution has been held back by the limited number of research groups having high-resolution nano-DMAs. To stimulate research in the field, a prototype of a Half-Mini DMA (1,2), which has been developed by Dr. Juan Fernandez de la Mora, a faculty member at Yale University, will be awarded by AAAR to an AAAR member. One instrument will be awarded each year as a gift from Juan Fernandez de la Mora, and the license to operate it is a gift from the NanoEngineering Corporation (NEC).

Applicants will need to upload a 1-2 page PDF file describing: (a) the goals of the ongoing or proposed research; (b) how this instrument will help advance this research; and (c) the availability of funding for purchasing instruments.
