Dr. Chang has been elected to the Steering Committee of the EIPBN Conference. He will serve a 5-year term as a member on the committee, and will serve as the Program Chair of EIPBN 2022.

Fred won the Most Bizzare Micrograph entitled “Merlot by the Femotoliter” at the 63^rd International Conference on Electron, Ion, and Photon Beam Technology and Nanofabrication in Minneapolis, MN. Fred and Andy also won the Honorable Mention for their micrographs in this annual competition. Congratulations!

Chang Group attends the 63nd International Conference on Electron, Ion, and Photon Beam Technology and Nanofabrication (EIPBN) in Minneapolis, MN. I-Te presented an oral presentation on multilayer processing of 3D nanostructures, and Fred, Andy, Saurav, and Shubhro each presented their posters on magnetically tunable optics, sapphire nanostructures, aligned assembly of Ag nanowire, and immersion interference lithography of hexagonal nanostructures, respectively. Timothy also presented a talk on modeling of non-monodispersed nanoparticles, a great achievement as an undergraduate student. Congratulations everybody!

The paper on “Recent Progress in Near-Field Nanolithography using Light Interactions with Colloidal Particles: From Nanospheres to 3D Nanostructures” has been accepted for publication by the journal Nanotechnology. This is an invited review paper authored by Allan, I-Te, and Dr. Chang.

Congratulations to Timothy for receiving the Honorable Mention for the 2019 National Science Foundation (NSF) Graduate Research Fellowship Program (GRFP)! Timothy has been an undergraduate researcher working in the lab for the past year, and will be pursuing his PhD at Georgia Tech.

Fred’s paper “Magnetically Actuated Dynamic Iridescence Inspired by the Neon Tetra” has been published by the journal ACS Nano. Read about it in the article by the NC State News. Congratulations!

Chang Group partners with the Museum of Life and Science in Durham, NC, to talk about Nanotechnology. This exhibit is titled “Nanostructures: Nature vs Engineering,” and will be on display through February as a part of the Museum’s Nanomonth. More information can be found at the museum website and the National Informal STEM Education Network (NISE). This event is sponsored by the National Science Foundation.

Joong-Hee’s paper has been featured as the frontispiece for Advanced Materials Interfaces. Congratulations!

Andy was awarded the “Best Poster Presentation in the Society-Wide Micro and Nanotechnology Forum” at the 2018 IMECE. Congratulations!

Chang Group attends the 2018 International Mechanical Engineering Congress & Exposition (IMECE) in Pittsburgh. Fred presented a talk on dynamic coloration of magnetic nanostructures, I-Te presented a talk on the repeatability and uniformity of roll-to-roll 3D nanolithography, and Andy presented a talk on enhancing optical transmission of multilayer composite material with nanostructure interfaces. Dr Chang organized and chaired a session on Nanomanufacturing.

Joong-Hee’s paper “Conformal Physical Vapor Deposition Assisted by Atomic Layer Deposition and Its Application for Stretchable Conductors” has been published by the journal Advanced Materials Interfaces. Congratulations!

Chih-Hao Chang has been welcomed to the 2018 Class of Senior Member by the Optical Society of America (OSA).
