Each year, Clarivate™ identifies the world’s most influential researchers ─ the select few who have been most frequently cited by their peers over the last decade. In 2020, fewer than 6,200, or about 0.1%, of the world’s researchers, in 21 research fields and across multiple fields, have earned this exclusive distinction.

We are proud to be a part of this academia-industry collaboration, working on a high throughput design and synthesis of new materials for a range of applications: catalysis for water splitting and CO2 conversion, and LEDs.

Welcoming our fresh PhD student Milad, and a cohort of undergraduate researchers, Abhishek, Tony, Ihor, Usama, Akshay, Dave. Shadi is also returning to our group as a postdoc!

In collaboration with Prof. Makhsud Saidaminov from the University of Victoria we are starting a new NFRF project targeting the synthesis of new solution-processed semiconductors.

Our initial goal is to improve the stability of fully-inorganic Pb-based perovskites for applications in solar cells and X-ray detectors. The next milestone is discovering new Pb-free perovskite-like materials.

Welcoming a visiting PhD student, Pimsuda, who will lead this project!
