individual record
Associate Professor
Positions:
- Faculty Affiliate, Energy Institute, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station (TEES), Division of Research
- Associate Professor, Mechanical Engineering, College of Engineering
overview
My research focuses on Scalable Nanomanufacturing, Nanometer Scale Thermal and Mass Transport, Near Field Optics, Organic Optoelectronics, MEMS/NEMS Design and Fabrication. Our lab develops new tools and techniques to pattern unconventional materials at the nanoscale, with particular interests in polymers, organic small molecules, metallic and semiconducting nanoparticles, and 1- and 2-D materials.
