Dr. Saw-Wai Hla, Professor of Physics at Ohio University, is part of a team of researchers from the U.S. Department of Energy’s Argonne National Laboratory, Ill., and Ohio University that has devised a powerful technique that simultaneously resolves the chemical characterization and topography of nanoscale materials down to the height […]

An Ohio University physics professor is organizing the 8th International Workshop on Nanoscale Spectroscopy and Nanotechnology (NSS-8), which will be held at the Gleacher Center in Chicago from July 28-31. NSS-8 is a biennial meeting series that shares the latest research advances of science and technology in the nanometer regime. […]

By Dr. Saw Wai Hla, Department of Physics and Astronomy, Ohio University Viewpoint Published in Physics Guitar strings, pendulums in clocks, and quartz crystals in watches are all examples of resonators. As their name suggests, resonators oscillate most strongly at specific frequencies (resonant frequencies), which depend on properties such as […]

Science Café presents Dr. Saw-Wai Hla on “Nanoscience: Playing Soccer with Atoms and Molecules” on Wednesday, Feb. 5, at 5 p.m. in the Baker Center Front Room. Hla, Professor of Physics and Astronomy, “kicks” around atoms and molecules every day.His research focuses on individual atoms and how we can manipulate […]

By Jessica Salerno Office of Research Communications Few physics students can say that they helped analyze a first-of-its-kind molecular motor, published a research article in the prestigious journal Nature Nanotechnology, and helped the U.S. Department of Energy’s Argonne National Laboratory to construct a major new piece of scientific equipment all […]
