NSF Dear Colleague Letter - RAISE on Enabling Quantum Leap: Transformational Advances in Quantum Systems
Sponsor Deadline for White Papers: February 16, 2018
Award Amount: Up to $1,000,000 over up to 5 years
This Dear Colleague Letter aims to encourage researchers to submit interdisciplinary research projects that must include at least three complementary components represented by researchers with expertise in the areas of physics, chemistry, mathematics, materials science, engineering, and computer/computational science, which are more broadly represented by the NSF Directorates for Mathematical and Physical Sciences (MPS), Engineering (ENG), and Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE). The innovative proposals must focus on quantum functionality by assessing aspects relevant to both fundamental and application concepts, and must result in experimental demonstrations of transformative advances towards quantum systems and/or proof-of-concept validations.
How To Apply:
Step 1. Submit a one-page white paper to the cognizant Program Directors from at least THREE (3) of the following divisions/office: DMR, PHY, CHE, DMS, ECCS, CCF, and OAC. Upon receipt of an invitation from the cognizant Program Directors, a full proposal may be submitted. Cognizant NSF Program Directors are:
Step 2. If invited to submit a full proposal, PIs must submit a full proposal using the RAISE funding mechanism (Research Advanced by Interdisciplinary Science and Engineering). Guidance on how to submit a RAISE proposals is here (PAPPG; see Chapter II.E.3).
