BDN highlights new materials research led by Yu
The Bangor Daily News highlighted an effort led by Liping Yu, an assistant professor of physics at the University of Maine, to design a new class of materials capable of improving solar cells, lasers and other optoelectronic devices that convert light into energy. Robert Lad, a professor of physics at UMaine, and Feng Yan, an assistant professor with the Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering at the University of Alabama, are working with him on the research. The National Science Foundation awarded $525,000 for the project.
