NSF I/U CRC

A New Industry-University Collaborative Research Center has been Announced by NSF


UNC Charlotte, along with City University of New York, Clarkson University and Western Carolina University will work with industry and government labs to design, model, fabricate and test artificial materials, known as metamaterials. Materials with unusual electromagnetic properties such as a negative index, zero permittivity or very high permittivities are being studied for microwave up to visible frequencies. More details about the NSF Center for Metamaterials can be found at:
