Dr. Eric Stinaff, Associate Professor of Physics & Astronomy, helped organize the 2014 Condensed Matter and Surface Science/Nanoscale & Quantum Phenonema Institute poster session in Clippinger Labs on April 17, 2014. Graduate and undergraduate students from the College of Arts & Sciences departments of Geology, Chemistry and Biochemistry, Physics & […]

By Jean Andrews Physics & Astronomy Analyzing the motion of electrons, Ohio University researchers have developed a process to discriminate among different impurities in graphene–the strong, light and conductive material only one atom thick being studied for a variety of nanoscale applications. Physics doctoral student Mahmoud Asmar and Dr. Sergio […]

The Nanoscale and Quantum Phenomena Institute (NQPI) presents “Synchrotron X-ray Assisted STM: Introducing Chemical Sensitivity,” a presentation by doctoral student Heath Kersell on Tuesday, Feb. 25, at 4 p.m. in Clippinger Labs 259.    

Dr. Arthur Smith, Professor of Physics and Astronomy, presents an invited talk Nov. 8 in Tsukuba, Japan, at the 12th International Conference on Atomically Controlled Surfaces, Interfaces, and Nanostructures, in conjunction with the 21st International Colloquium on Scanning Probe Microscopy. Smith will discuss “Spin-polarized scanning tunneling microscopy of complex magnetic […]

From the Nanoscale & Quantum Phenomena Institute Don’t expect nanotechnology to produce tiny robots with artificial intelligence that devour cancer cells or ropes with Carbon nanotube strands that are strong enough to build a space elevator from Earth to the orbiting stations. These ideas are nothing but hype in the […]

  Congrats to Dr. Alexander Govorov and Ph.D. student Zhiyuan Fan on their paper in Nature accumulating 100 citations in the 18 months since its publication. The two were co-authors on a March 2012 paper on “DNA-based self-assembly of chiral plasmonic nanostructures with tailored optical response,” which appeared in the journal […]
