Chancellor’s Dissertation Medal 2018
Our first PhD graduate, Zhenbin Wang, has just been awarded the Chancellor’s Dissertation Medal! The Chancellor’s Dissertation Medal recognizes outstanding Ph.D. dissertations with impact and originality. Zhenbin’s dissertation on the “Design and Optimization of Phosphors for Solid-State Lighting using First-Principles Calculations” has provide immense insights into the structure-composition-property relationships in phosphors (materials which emit light), culminating in the discovery of the novel Sr2LiAlO4 phosphor – the first known crystal in the Sr-Li-Al-O chemistry. Congratulations to Zhenbin on the well-deserved honor!
