As a Marie Sklodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA) postdoctoral fellow, Dr. Sha Liu has helped the IMDEA Materials Institute to become a reference in the calculation of phase diagrams of metallic alloys for engineering applications.
“We developed a method to enhance mutual alignment and stress-transfer in multiyarn CNT fabrics, which is a critical step for scaling up the CNT fabrics manufacturing process and further industrial implementation.”
“Material scientists are always trying to push the envelope to develop that one material with that one microstructure that can be used for a variety of applications, and along the way materials development occurs”.
Mauricio Terrones is a Physics Engineer and is currently the Director of the Center for 2D and Layered Materials and the NSF-IUCRC Center for Atomically Thin Multifunctional Coatings (ATOMIC).
“Being curious about how the world works, ‘why did this happen?’, ‘why am I here?’, provides a motivation for asking critical questions, and provides the basis for successful research thrusts”.
“IMDEA Materials has provided a unique opportunity both to mature as a scientist as well as to contribute to the creation and growth of a research institute in Spain”, Dr. Teresa Pérez Prado.
“Linking complex microstructures to equally complex mechanical properties is one of the main strengths at IMDEA Materials…fitting almost perfectly with what I had been doing in the past and where I want to go in the future.”
