Chang Group attends the 60th Int. Conference on Electron, Ion, and Photon Beam Technology and Nanofabrication in Pittsburgh, PA. Allan gave an oral presentation on low-index nanostructured materials. Allan, Abhijeet, Joong Hee, and Hiro also gave poster presentations, while Jared presented an invited poster.
Dr. Abhijeet Bagal and Dr. Allan Zhang have successfully defended their Doctoral Thesis. After joining our group within a week of each other, they finished the long journey together. They are the first and second PhDs from our group. Congratulation! Dr. Bagal will join Applied Materials in Santa Clara, CA, and Dr. Zhang will join University of Maryland as a Postdoctoral Researcher.
