Primary Research Area: Nanotechnology/Microtechnology<br />
Keywords: polymer, Catalytic, materials<br />
Research program: We introduce the crystal engineering approach to supermolecular structure <strong>and</strong> catalyst<br />
synthesis. Microsphere supports with various structure <strong>and</strong> surface groups have been prepared by emulsion<br />
polymerization or templated synthesis. Abundant catalysts have been obtained <strong>and</strong> used to develop the<br />
environmentally friendly oxidation system.<br />
Research facilities available: Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry; In situ Fourier Transform Infrared<br />
Spectroscopy; Shared user facilities at USTB- Electron microscopy center, National Metal Research Center<br />
Research partners needed: Research partners needed Expertise in functional materials synthesis <strong>and</strong><br />
characterization<br />

Primary Research Area: Nanotechnology/Microtechnology<br />
Keywords: robotics, micro/mesomanufacturing, small satellites<br />
Research program The research at the Space, Automation, <strong>and</strong><br />
Manufacturing Mechanisms(SAMM) Laboratory focuses on intelligent <strong>and</strong> autonomous robotic<br />
systems,innovative desings <strong>of</strong> mechanisms for space, automation, manufacturing <strong>and</strong> micro-electro-mechanical<br />
systems, <strong>and</strong> integration <strong>of</strong> micro/mesoscale elements for enhanced system performance. Emphasis is placed<br />
on micromacro robotics, introduction <strong>of</strong> compliant elements, physics-based modeling, dynamic parameter<br />
identification, analysis, control, <strong>and</strong> development <strong>of</strong> performance metrics.<br />
