Alf Mews Ph.D.
Alf Mews studied chemical engineering in Aachen (Diploma in 1988) and Chemistry in Siegen (Diploma in 1992) after which he joined the group of Prof. Horst Weller at the Hahn-Meitner-Institute in Berlin. He received his PhD in 1994 while working on the preparation of semiconductor nanocrystals. In 1995 he took a DFG fellowship to work on different spectroscopic techniques in the group of Prof. Paul Alivisatos in Berkeley, California. In 1996 he moved to Munich to work on single molecule spectroscopy in the group of Prof. Christian Bräuchle and in 1997 he joined the group of Prof. Thomas Basché in Mainz where he finished his Habilitation in 2003 entitled: “Investigation of nano structures with microscopic methods: Material science on the nanometer scale”. Since 2004 he is a full Professor for Physical Chemistry at the University of Siegen. |
By this ResearcherRelated ContentAuthor Interview: Nano-Semiconductors: Devices and TechnologyNanoScienceWorks.org looks at the dynamic area of nano-semoconductors, and how these tiny devices are fundamentally changing the worlds of computing and communications. We speak with the author of Nano-Semiconductor: Devices and Technology, Dr. Krzysztof Iniewski, who manages R&D developments at Redlen Technologies, Inc., a start-up firm in British Columbia, Canada. His research interests are in VLSI circuits for medical and security applications.
UCLA Team Develops Graphene-Based SupercapacitorResearchers at University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA) have developed a supercapacitor or electrochemical capacitor (EC) composed of an expanded network of graphene — a one-atom-thick layer of graphitic carbon. The team demonstrated excellent mechanical and electrical properties as well as exceptionally high surface area.
MIT Team Controls Size, Composition of Individual NanowiresA team of MIT researchers has found a way of precisely controlling the width and composition of nanowires as they grow, making it possible to grow complex structures designed for particular applications.
