Research Project Description:
The experimental objectives were to determine if it was possible to synthesize and characterize thin films of indium hydroxide with tunable levels of chromium doping. Though this project is deemed basic research it may one day have applications in memory devices, spin valves, semiconductors and multiferroics. Thin film technology in is widely used in industry and by the general public but the current method of producing the films is costly environmentally and monetarily. By utilizing the relatively new method of vapor diffusion catalysis/synthesis the new method of creating thin films may benefit everyone.

Curriculum Project Description:
Superdirt.org is a fully integrated, standards based, experiential and cross-curricular learning portal, which utilizes and employs a wide variety of learning modalities to enhance the educational experience, and is the brain child of the now world renown Jason K. Smith, who, he himself, is a government think tank ( laugh, that was a joke). The web site, superdirt.org gives students and teachers access to a wide range of educational materials, including in-class labs, cyber labs, virtual field trips, spectacular multimedia (movies, animations and photos), and more.
