​Our Group's Research: Understanding Defects, Interfaces and Nanoparticles
& How to Determine Properties of Materials

Welcome to the Carter Research Group. Our research focuses on using different forms of microscopy to characterize materials and thus to understand how they behave. We are building on cbc's position as a CINT Distinguished Affiliate Scientist at Sandia National Laboratory in Albuquerque, NM.
