Alfo​nso Caraveo will be delivering an oral presentation in the 2012 E-MRS Spring Meeting in Strasbourgh, France in the Symposium of Novel materials and fabrication methods for new emerging devices about his ongoing research on p-type transparent oxide semiconductors. ​​

Adnan’s recent paper which has been published in Advanced Materials continues to get the attention of many organizations. Nanowerk just highlighted the paper on their website. Please see http://www.nanowerk.com/spotlight/spotid=24982.php

They will cover energy storage and flexible electronics in 3 different presentations at the 2012 MRS Spring Meeting to take place in San Francisco, in April this year.

Article on supercapitors spotlights in Nanowerk magazine which is the premier and most popular source for nanotechnology information.

High performance supercapacitors using metal oxide anchored graphene nanosheet electrodes
R. B. Rakhi, Wei Chen, Dongkyu Cha and H. N. Alshareef
J. Mater. Chem., 2011, 21, 16197-1620

After a successful poster presentation of his research on supercapacitors, Wei Chen won the Dow Sustainability and Innovation Student Challenge ​at KAUST. The award included a cash prize as well as a fully paid attendance to the Global Recognition Ceremony to be held on October, 2011 in Berkeley, CA. ​

Alfonso's poster on Nanoscale Gadolinium Oxide Capping Layers on Compositionally Variant Gate Dielectrics awarded as the Best Student Poster Award during the 2011 International Materials Research Congress in Cancun, Mexico. ​

Rakhi's paper on nanostructured oxide/graphene electrodes for supercapacitors has been accepted​ by J. Materials Chemistry​
