Asst. Prof. Tan Kwan Wee (18 August 2021)

Topic: Transient Laser Heating Approaches in Synthesis and Characterization of Hybrid Nanostructures.

Speaker: Asst. Prof. Tan Kwan Wee from Nanyang Technological University



We’re excited to announce our next speaker, Asst. Prof. Tan Kwan Wee from Nanyang Technological University, to bring us:


Transient Laser Heating Approaches in Synthesis and Characterization of Hybrid Nanostructures


Abstract

Transient laser heating on nano- to millisecond time scales provide new pathways to generate multiscale functional materials and phases. In this talk I will describe some of our synthesis approaches to form self-assembly–directed mesoporous polymer and crystalline silicon nanostructures. We will also introduce the X-ray probed laser anneal mapping technique to study phase transitions of metastable oxides and metal alloys.


Biography

Kwan W. Tan is an assistant professor at Nanyang Technological University. He received his PhD, MEng and BEng in materials science from Cornell University, Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Nanyang Technological University. His research interests include exploring new approaches coupling self-assembly and nonequilibrium thermal annealing to generate multifunctional material structures and combinations.

Very much looking forward to the seminar – hope to see you all on Wednesday: (SGT) 9am, Wed, 18 August! https://mit.zoom.us/j/96231985116

Warmest regards, @Thway @kedar @Tonio
