's research is concerned with charge-density waves in low-dimensional metals. He also studies aspects of complex metallic alloys, including shape memory alloys and quasicrystals.

The research in Dr. Jeff Dahn's lab focuses on developing new materials for advanced lithium-ion batteries and polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells. Such devices will be crucial in the next few years, as demand for electric vehicles and storage capacity for renewable energy (solar and wind) increases in the next decade.

Dr. Hall's uses femtosecond lasers to investigate charge and spin dynamics in semiconductor materials. The broad objective of this research is to develop new semiconductor technologies, including spintronic devices and a solid state quantum computer using semiconductor quantum dots.

Imagine being able to simultaneously and uniquely track hundreds of molecules or proteins in a cell in three dimensions at millisecond rates. To achieve this goal, the propose to combine a molecular-specific light scattering technique (Stimulated Raman spectroscopy - SRS) with the well-known three-dimensional imaging capability of holography, to create molecular holograms.

In Dr. Hill's , students and researchers work on developing materials for new solar cell technologies, including organic, hybrid organic/inorganic, and dye-sensitized solar cells, as well as organic light-emitting devices (OLEDs) and thin-film transistors (OTFTs). Dr. Hill's lab is one of many in the Department that is part of the 麻豆传媒 Research in Energy, Advanced Materials and Sustainability (DREAMS) program, part of NSERC's CREATE program.

Our lab works towards enabling high-energy lithium-ion batteries, developing long-lived lithium metal batteries and creating novel devices for energy-efficient water desalination, so-called 鈥渄esalination batteries鈥�. See Dr. Metzger's profile page for more information.

The research focus of 's group involves the integration of magnetic materials with Si (silicon) and Ge (germanium) for spintronic studies. Dr. Monchesky and his group members use molecular beam epitaxy to grow atomically thin ferromagnets, helical magnets, and ferromagnetic semiconductors, with the objective of developing new magnetic materials for next-generation spintronic technologies.
 

Dr. Mark Obrovac's is in the development of practical battery chemistries based on low-cost and abundant materials, such as sodium and magnesium. This includes the synthesis and characterization of new intercalation materials, nanostructured compounds, amorphous metal alloys and non-aqueous electrolytes for use in advanced batteries.

's primary research interest is in developing the nanoscience framework necessary for the characterization and inter-relation of the physical, electronic and optical properties of semiconductor nanostructures. The primary experimental tools for this research are the transmission and scanning electron microscopes and, theoretically, the Beowulf parallel computing cluster.

works very closely with Dr. Jeff Dahn and Dr. Michael Metzger's groups as a big research team. Sponsored by our industrial partner - ., our groups focus on material physics and chemistry of energy storage materials, aiming to build Li-ion battery with higher energy, longer life time, and lower cost.

and his group are doing research at the interface of the physics and chemistry of materials. They use a variety of experimental methods, including nuclear magnetic resonance, optical studies, and thermal analysis to investigate materials ranging from optical glass to concrete composites.
