, assistant professor of chemical and petroleum engineering at the 51精品视频鈥檚 Swanson School of Engineering, was recently received the $540,000 for her research in super-thin 鈥2D鈥 materials.
The award, which comes from the National Science Foundation, supports early-career faculty who have the potential to serve as academic role models in research and education and to lead advances in the mission of their department or organization.
Fullerton and her group invented a new type of ion-containing material, or electrolyte, which is only a single molecule thick. This will ultimately introduce new functions that can be used by the electronic materials community to explore the fundamental properties of new semiconductor materials and to develop electronics with completely new device characteristics.
