NSF WORKSHOP
Alabama A&M University (AAMU) Department of Physics NSF/Research Infrastructure in Science and Engineering (RISE)
Workshop/Short Course
on the Development and
Study of Advanced Sensors
and Sensor Materials for
Undergraduate Students
and
College Faculty
July 10-14, 2006
Workshop Activities
What is the nature of a “good” detector? How does the world of nano-particles enter into sensor science? How do detectors compare with each other in speed, capacity, functionality, and detection range? The emphasis for the workshop/short course will be on Biological, Chemical, and Radiation Sensors and Sensor Materials. This will be an exciting time for you to participate in Materials Science and Applied Optics with internationally known scientists. Participants will have an opportunity to spend time in the Advanced Sensor Laboratories of AAMU. A tour of Alabama Space and Rocket Center is planned.
