Multi Modal Materials Analysis (MMoMA)
Funds new ways to read a material's molecular make-up and composition without special sample preparation.
Knowing exactly what a material is made of usually means damaging or specially preparing a sample first — grinding it, coating it, sometimes destroying it. MMoMA is DARPA's push to get that same depth of answer without any of that.
The technical ask is precise: surface and bulk analysis of molecular structure, elemental composition, and trace elements and isotope ratios, all done under ambient co…
Surface and bulk analysis of molecular structure, elemental composition, and trace elements and isotope ratios in materials, conducted under ambient conditions without special sample preparation, excluding research that would only deliver evolutionary improvements on existing materials-analysis techniques.
