| The Center for Thermal Spray Research (CTSR) at the State University of New York at Stony Brook is a designated US National Science Foundation (NSF) Materials Research Science and Engineering Center (MRSEC). CTSR-Stony Brook was an outgrowth of the Thermal Spray Laboratory set up in the late 1970s by Dr. Herman. The MRSEC program focuses on interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary approaches to materials research of the highest caliber. There are 29 MRSECs in the US specializing in various aspects of materials physics, chemistry and engineering. Details about these Centers are available at www.mrsec.org). CTSR was established as a MRSEC in 1996 following a yearlong national competition and supported initially for a period of 4 years. In 2000, CTSR was reestablished for an additional 5-year period. |

Several examples of programs being pursued in CTSR include:
MICE: Mesoscopic Integrated Conformal Electronics FGM: Functionally Gradient Materials (Sponsored by INEL) Infrastructure Research (Sponsored by the US Army) Nano: Plasma-Based Ultrafine Particle Synthesis (Sponsored by the NSF) Real-Time Imaging of the Plasma Spray Process: Work in Progress (NSF) |
