A propos de l'auteur
René M. Overney, is Professor in Chemical Engineering, University of Washington. His research Interests is rational molecular engineering based on nanoscale fundamentals with focus on enhanced electronic, photonic, ionic, energy, momentum and mass transport properties, based on molecular relaxations and entropic cooperative properties in complex organic thin films. Overney's group is known for its pioneering efforts in developing novel scanning probe methods towards mapping inter- and intra-molecular energetics and transitions in thin film and self-assembled systems.
