By Amanda Biederman NQPI editorial intern A new finding from the lab of Physics & Astronomy professor and Nanoscale and Quantum Phenomena Institute member Dr. Martin Kordesch has altered the scientific community’s understanding on the fundamental properties of materials in thermionic cathodes. In a paper published in AIP Advances last June, […]

By Raymond Humienny NQPI editorial intern New to the Nanoscale and Quantum Phenomena Institute, Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering Assistant Professor John Staser is no stranger to Ohio University. Staser became a professor at OHIO in 2013, and now he’s bringing his research on carbon quantum dots to a new audience. […]

By Amanda Biederman NQPI editorial intern Distinguishing identical twins can be a difficult task at first. Physics & Astronomy professor and Nanoscale and Quantum Phenomena Institute member Nancy Sandler encounters a similar scenario when dealing with seemingly identical carbon atom pairs. Sandler recently authored two papers in Nano Letters that […]

Ohio University Honors Tutorial College engineering physics majors Ari Blumer and Zak Blumer have accepted graduate fellowships to study in the Materials Science and Engineering Ph.D. program at Ohio State University in Columbus. Ari Blumer received the prestigious National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellowship, which provides three years of financial […]

By Zak Blumer ’18 B.S. Engineering Physics, Honors Tutorial College During most of my childhood, my father served as the director of The Wilds—one of the largest wildlife conservation centers in North America. Living in eastern Ohio, I was surrounded by nature and wildlife, and consequently grew up with a […]

By Ari Blumer ’18 B.S. Engineering Physics, Honors Tutorial College Electrochemical supercapacitors typically store 10 to 100 times more energy per unit than electrolytic capacitors. They utilize the energy-storing mechanisms found in traditional capacitors and batteries, bringing them both into one device using an ionic electrolyte and a high-surface-area electrode […]

By Raymond Humienny NQPI editorial intern Imagine growing the materials you need for a device right onto the metal contacts in a circuit. Dr. Eric Stinaff, Professor of Physics & Astronomy and Director of the Nanoscale and Quantum Phenomena Institute at Ohio University, has already filed for a provisional patent […]
