EAGER: Dynamic Modification of the Spectral Radiative Properties of a Fluid via Core-Shell Multi-Functional Nanoparticles

Statement of Work This collaborative project between the University of Tulsa and ASU focuses on dynamic control of the spectral radiative properties of a dispersion of core-shell multifunctional nanoparticles. Specifically, the ASU researchers will synthesize thermal responsive core-shell polymer-gold composite nanoparticles, engineer the transition temperature, transition degree, core/shell ratio, etc, and characterize spectral radiative properties. The experimental work will be integrated with theoretical/modeling approaches.
