| Background |
|
Areas of Concentration
|
My group is interested Engineering the composition of glass for specific applications. Among our current projects are creating glasses with specific refractive index and dispersion for optical instruments, Using novel optical techniques to measure the diffusion of gasses through glass melts, and looking at what happens when you pull a glass melt really hard and distort the structure. We have a project on making glass and glass ceramic phosphors for white light emitting LEDS and we are looking at bulk metallic glasses. We are also interested in making new and unusual glasses for optical magnetic and even biological responses.
