The objective of this subprogram is to support fundamental experimental and theoretical research to provide the knowledge base for the discovery and design of new materials with novel structures, functions, and properties. These research activities emphasize the design and synthesis of materials; the characterization of their structure and defect state; the understanding of their physical, chemical, and irradiation-induced behaviors over multiple length and time scales; and the development and a...
