Session: Detection of Biological Agents and Self-Cleaning of Contaminated Surfaces
Presenter: L.J. Buckley, Defense Sciences Office, DARPA
Correspondent: Click to Email

Materials chemistry at the surface impacts many areas of science and engineering. As one approaches nanometer dimensions, the surface properties will dominate the material behavior. The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) has many opportunities for the application of materials chemistry for the general modification of surface behavior. A summary of these opportunities will be presented.
