Center

Provides expert staff and specialized analytical equipment to solve materials characterization challenges encountered in education, research and industry.

Studies solar photovoltaic and other outdoor exposed technologies using degradation science, data science and analytics.

Department of Materials Science and Engineering "MetLab" with equipment for grinding/polishing, mounting, sectioning, testing, microscopy and more

Explores metal casting innovations and applications.

Creates experimental techniques to develop a physical understanding of processing-structure-property relationships of crystalline and amorphous materials

Researches alloy surface engineering, plated metallization, metal-oxide interfaces and materials for fuel cells, photovoltaics, and nanotechnology

Applies materials technology to real-life applications and develops new materials for extreme environmental conditions. Research at ECG is focused on processing-structure-property relationships in electronic ceramics. There are two thrusts (1) Energy conversion and storage materials and (2) 2D behavior.
