Characterization, Design, and Processing of Nanosize Powders and Nanostructured Materials

Dr. Yury Gogotsi is Professor of Materials Science and Engineering at Drexel University in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He also holds appointments in the Departments of Chemistry and Mechanical Engineering at Drexel University and serves as Director of the A.J. Drexel Nanotechnology Institute and Associate Dean of the College of Engineering. He received his MS (1984) and PhD (1986) degrees from Kiev Polytechnic and a DSc degree from the Institute of Materials Science, Ukrainian Academy of Science, in 1995.
His research group works on carbon nanotubes, nanoporous carbide-derived carbons, and nanofluidics. He has also contributed to the areas of structural ceramics, corrosion of ceramic materials, and pressure-induced phase transformations, creating a new research field called High Pressure Surface Science and Engineering. He has co-authored two books, edited nine books, obtained more than 20 patents and authored about 200 journal papers and a dozen of book chapters. He has advised a large number of MS, PhD and post-doctoral students at Drexel University and University of Illinois at Chicago. Gogotsi has received several awards for his research including I.N. Frantsevich Prize from the Ukrainian Academy of Science, S. Somiya Award from the International Union of Materials Research Societies, G.C. Kuczynski Prize from the International Institute for the Science of Sintering, and Roland B. Snow Award from the American Ceramic Society (twice). He has been elected a Fellow of the American Ceramic Society, Academician of the World Academy of Ceramics, and Full Member of the International Institute for the Science of Sintering.
