Summary In this work, near-field transport imaging will be applied to nanowire structures in collaboration with DARPA supported programs at NIST Boulder, Georgia Institute of Technology and Magnolia Optical and organizations developing nanowire materials for sensing and energy harvesting applications. The PI will travel to the institutions listed above to present the unique NPS capability in transport imaging and to establish collaborations. The materials of interest include GaN and ZnO nanowires. Measurements will then be made at NPS to provide characterization of minority carrier diffusion length on samples provided by the collaborators. These measurements entail imaging the light emitted from the structure under electron beam excitation.
