MSE Undergraduate Research Program Invited Talk

Friday, August 31, 2012
William R. Hewlett Teaching Center, 201
Lecture at 3:30PM


Studies of Colloidal Nanocrystals in the Electron Microscope


A. Paul Alivisatos, Ph.D.


Director of Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory

Larry and Diane Bock Professor

Departments of Chemistry and Materials Science

University of California, Berkeley


This talk will present our recent work on the study of colloidal
nanocrystals in a fluid using the TEM. We have studied the motion of
nanocrystals, the trajectories for the growth of individual particles, and
the formation of nanocrystal arrays as the liquid evaporates. In each
case, the ability to observe the behavior of single particles offers new
physical insights.
