Soft Chemistry of Materials for Sustainability: From Ternary Dichalcogenides to Binary Phosphides

Javier Vela, professor at Iowa State University, studies the "soft" synthesis and chemical spectroscopy of low dimensional (nanoscale) and optical (photoactive) materials. He is particularly interested in the design of powerful and widely applicable synthetic strategies that span a continuum across length scales. Read more from Professor Vela's faculty profile.
