AFRL researchers contribute to prestigious scientific journal ACS Nano
The graphic illustrates how the high-energy electron beam from a scanning electron microscope is used to functionalize transition metal dichalcogenides, or TMDs. Air Force Research Laboratory, or AFRL, researchers from the Materials and Manufacturing Directorate contributed this work to the February 2023 ACS Nano publication “Precision Modification of Monolayer Transition Metal Dichalcogenides via Environmental E‑Beam Patterning.” TMDs are a specific class of two-dimensional layered materials essential for the development of emerging sensing and electronic technologies for the Department of the Air Force and commercial market. The example shows hydrogen (H) and oxygen (O) atoms as they are added to TMD atomic layers consisting of sulfur (S), selenium (Se), Molybdenum (Mo) and tungsten (W) to functionalize them. The electron beam removes atoms from the TMD, causing a chemical reaction that emits light and heat which can be harnessed for use in sensing and other technologies. (U.S. Air Force graphic)

AFRL Materials and Manufacturing Directorate hosts annual awards ceremony
The Air Force Research Laboratory’s Materials and Manufacturing Directorate, or RX, Director Darrell Phillipson, far left, and Chief Scientist Dr. Richard Vaia, far right, pose with award recipients, from left to right, Dr. Matthew Dickerson, Dr. Lisa Rueschhoff and Dr. Abigail Juhl at the 70th Annual RX Awards Ceremony Jan. 27, 2022, at the Air Force Institute of Technology’s Kenney Hall. The team of Dickerson and Rueschhoff tied with Juhl for the directorate’s most prestigious honor, the Charles J. Cleary Scientific Achievement Award, for the first time in the organization’s history. The Cleary Award acknowledges exemplary research published or accepted for publication, in a recognized, refereed journal. (U.S. Air Force photo / Jonathan Taulbee).
