Jain’s group published a paper in collaboration with Suib’s group (Chemistry) entitled “Enhanced Visible-Light-Assisted Peroxymonosulfate Activation on Cobalt-Doped Mesoporous Iron oxide for Orange II Degradation” in Applied Catalysis B:  Environmental. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.apcatb.2019.118332

Jain’s group published a paper with Sotzing’s group (in Polymer Science) entitled “Graphene and Poly(3,4-ethylene dioxythiophene): Poly(4-styrene sulfonate) on Nonwoven Fabric as a Room Temperature Metal and Its Application as Dry Electrodes for Electrocardiography” in ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces. https://doi.org/10.1021/acsami.9b05379

Austin and Jianhang’s paper entitled “Magnetic and Tunable Dielectric Properties of DyCrO₃ Thin Films” was published in the Journal of Materials Science. DOI :10.1007/s10853-019-03524-6

Dr. Jain’s paper entitled “Biocompatible superparamagnetic carriers of chondroitin sulfate” with collaborators from Brazil was published in Materials Research Express.

Austin’s paper entitled “Magnetic and Tunable Dielectric Properties of DyCrO₃ Thin Films” was published in the Journal of Materials Science. Congrats Austin!

Mark E. Johnson, an undergraduate student in Dr. Menka Jain’s group, has received Honorable Mention in the 2019 National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellowship Program (GRFP).

The GRFP recognizes and supports individuals early in their graduate training in STEM (Science, Technology, Education, and Mathematics) fields.

Mark’s proposal for the GRFP was based on research he has conducted over the last three semesters in Dr. Jain’s lab.

Mark will graduate in May with a dual major in physics and chemistry. While he has received offers from many graduate programs, Mark will begin his graduate studies at University of Massachusetts, Amherst.

REU student in our lab from Berkeley University, Ms Sonia Martin presented her work in the poster session at the Tech Park, UCONN today. Good Work Sonia!

Ms. Sonia Martin, an REU student from Berkeley, joined our lab for summer. Welcome Sonia!

Dr. Shiqi Yin attended the commencement to receive his PhD degree.

Jianhang’s paper entitled “Enhancement in magnetocaloric properties of ErCrO₃ via A-site Gd substitution” was published in the Journal of Applied Physics. Congrats Jianhang!
