SYNOPSIS
Supports fundamental chemical research directed toward the characterization and analysis of all forms of matter. Studies of elemental and molecular composition and of the microstructure of both bulk and surface domains are included. The program supports projects that develop the fundamentals of measurement science, new sensors and new instruments, and innovative approaches to data processing and interpretation.
Investigations designed to probe the chemical structure and reactivity of the interface between different forms of matter also are supported. The program is linked to several other chemistry research programs within NSF, including Solid State Chemistry (Materials Research Division, MPS Directorate); Biochemistry and Biophysics (Molecular and Cellular Biosciences Division, BIO Directorate); and Chemical Reaction Processes and Interfacial, Transport, and Separation Processes (Chemical and Transport Systems Division, ENG Directorate).
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Proposals to the Analytical and Surface Chemistry Program should be submitted during the Division of Chemistry's submission windows that are that are open between July 1 and July 31 and then between November 1 and November 30. Proposals may be submitted at any time the windows are open.
For general information about preparing and submitting NSF proposals, please see the Guide to Programs (http://www.nsf.gov/pubsys/ods/getpub.cfm?gp) and the Grant Proposal Guide (http://www.nsf.gov/pubsys/ods/getpub.cfm?gpg). Proposals must address Criterion 2 (Broader Impacts) in the Project Summary. Examples of broader impacts for the chemistry community are available (http://www.nsf.gov/funding/pgm_summ.jsp?pims_id=13626&org=CHE).
The Analytical and Surface Chemistry Program actively participates in several targeted programs, including Research at Undergraduate Institutions (RUI), Grant Opportunities for Academic Liaison with Industry (GOALI), Faculty Early Career Development Program (CAREER), Minority Research Planning Grants and Career Advancement Awards (MRPG/MCAA), Activities in Science, Engineering and Mathematics for Persons with Disabilities (PPD) and other NSF-wide programs.
Small Grants for Exploratory Research (SGERs) will be considered for particularly timely, high risk/high payoff research. Please contact one of the cognizant program officers if you are considering submitting a SGER. For more information, see the Grant Proposal Guide, Chapter II, section D.1.
Supplement requests to active awards should be discussed with the cognizant program officer before submission.
