Computer rendering of Atomic Force Microscopy probing of lithium intercalation on a polycrystalline LiCoO2 substrate. Light colors indicate electrochemically active hot spots in the microstructure that control the response of the bulk of the battery device.

Professor Jon Wilker discovers unique oyster adhesives which could help scientists develop better synthetic glues that could have applications in medicine.

Professor Lia Stanciu and PhD student Yu-Ho Won, as well as colleagues from Clarkson University, have demonstrated in a new paper in the Journal Biosensors and Bioelectronics that nickel nanoparticles can be successfully used in the construction of electrochemical enzyme sensors for the detection of phenolic compounds.

Dr. Jacob Jones, 2004 PhD recipient from our School, is featured in the newest Engineering Impact Magazine as a risk taker as well as an innovative researcher. Jacob is a recipient of the Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers.

Purdue MSE and ECE researchers have demonstrated geometries and growth parameters that eliminate dislocations from nanorods for light-emitting diode devices. By reducing the occurrence of dislocations their deleterious effects on optoelectronic performance can be mitigated.

The Purdue University board of trustees on Thursday (Feb. 11) ratified the appointment of Timothy D. Sands as the university's next executive vice president for academic affairs and provost.

Jean Paul Allain, Assistant Professor Materials Engineering has been selected to receive funding under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act

A recent New York Times article featured Jeffrey Youngblood, associate professor in the School of Materials Engineering at Purdue University, for his work in inventing a no-fog, self-cleaning coating for plastics and glass. The specially engineered polymers allow water to displace oil without the use of soap—an invention that's both convenient and environmentally friendly.
