Jason Maldonis joins the Voyles group this summer to work on bulk metallic glasses using fluctuation microscopy experiments and related simulations.  Jason has been awarded a McElroy Trust graduate fellowship that will help support his …

Paul has been named a University of Wisconsin Vilas Associate for 2013-2014.  The honor comes with flexible research funding for two years, which Paul will use to continue experiments on time-resolved diffraction and extremely high …

Fengyuan will present “High Resolution Scanning Transmission Electron Microscopy Shows MnMn/O Termination at the Co2MnSi/MgO Interface in a Magnetic Tunnel Junction” in Symposium DD at Spring MRS.  The talk is on Friday, April 5, at …

Paul is on this year’s list of Referee Acknowledgements from Applied Physics Letters, thanking referees for “outstanding service and dedication to the journal” based on “number of reviews completed, timeliness, quality, and reliability”.

New papers from former students.  Ye Zhu’s work on doping thin-film semiconductors membranes has finally appeared in a paper on high-speed membrane TFTs in Nature Scientific Reports.  Hua Xiang’s work with Fengyuan Shi on reactive …

Paul will present at the upcoming TMS meeting in San Antonio and the Deutsche Physikalische Gesellschaft (DPG, German Physical Society) meeting in Regensburg.  At the TMS meeting, he will present “Mixed Icosahedral and Crystal-Like Short and …

Fengyuan presented on “MnMn/O and CoCo/O Terminations at Co2MnSi/MgO Interface in a Magnetic Tunnel Junction Investigated by High Resolution Scanning Transmission Electron Microscopy” at the joint MMM / Intermag conference last week in Chicago.

Paul has posted some thoughts on pursuing a career in research, motivated by an anecdote from Neil deGrasse Tyson.
