Laboratories Advanced Materials

The central themes of research at the Advanced Materials Laboratory are to characterize, control and exploit physical phenomena that are operative at the nanometer length-scale to engineer material systems with unprecedented properties.

To this end, we focus on understanding the fundamental mechanics of deformation at the nano-scale, elucidation of kinetics of atomic transport in nanostructured domains and characterization of phase-transformations in nanomaterials.
