Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering
Advanced materials outperform their conventional counterparts with superior optical, catalytic, mechanical, magnetic and thermal properties. Nanotechnology plays a critical role in fabricating advanced materials that can address major challenges in a variety of advanced applications including energy conversion & storage, electronics, photonics, catalysis and biomedicine. Research directions in the department include self-assembly at nano- and micro-scale, interfacial formation of suprastructures, investigation of structure-property relationship at the nanoscale, biomedical application of polymer-based vesicles & stimuli-responsive materials, and computational prediction of crystallization and materials dynamics.
