Welcome
to The Lin Research Group
in the Department of
Materials Science and Engineering at the
Iowa State University. The goal of our research is to
understand the fundamentals of microscopic and nanoscopic
structure formation at surfaces and interfaces, as well as in
confined geometries. We intend to create these structures in a
precisely controllable manner, and to exploit the
structure-property relationships in the development of
multifunctional materials for potential applications in optics,
microelectronics , optoelectronics, nanotechnology, and
biotechnology. Our current research projects are:
¶ Learn from "Coffee
Rings": Formation of Ordered Structures by Evaporation-Induced
Self-Assembly.[More]
¶ Quantum Dots Tailored
with Conjugated Polymers and Their Use in Solar Cells.[More]
¶
Nanocrystal
Sensitized TiO2 Nanotube Solar Cells.
¶
Nanocomposites with Long-Range Hierarchical Order Based on
Block Copolymers Embedded with Ferroelectric/Superparamagnetic
Nanoparticles
¶ Phase
Behavior and Phase Separation Kinetics of Polymer Dispersed
Liquid Crystal (PDLC) in Nanoscopic Geometries.[More]
