Bruce studies the growth, structure, magnetic properties, and mechanical properties of thin films and nanostructured materials. By controlling growth and atomic scale structure, he is able to tune and optimize properties. He is currently investigating materials for photovoltaics, electronic device, and hydrogen storage applications.

Steve grew up in Colorado, attended the Colorado School of MInes in Golden, CO for his Bachelors degree in Engineering Physics ('02) and Masters degree in Metallurgical and Materials Engineering ('03).  After college he moved to the Lake Tahoe area and worked a winter as a ski instructor at Squaw Valley USA while applying to graduate school.  He has been at Stanford since 2004 working towards a Ph.D. in Materials Science and Engineering while studying hydrogen storage materials.  Most of his work involves thin film deposition (mainly sputtering) and x-ray characterization using facilities on campus and at the Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Lightsource (SSRL).  Read more >>

He enjoys skiing, biking, hiking and camping in my spare time and have developed a love for the great Sierra Nevada mountains while here at Stanford.

Cara Beasley received her B.S. in Chemistry from the University of California, Santa Barbara in 2005. She is currently pursuing a Ph.D. in Chemistry at Stanford. Currently, she is working on the chemistry behind carbon nanotube growth. She is looking at ways to tailor and understand the CVD growth of single-walled carbon nanotubes to give specific diameter ranges, chiralities, and yields. Growths on different substrates is another topic of interest. She is working closely with other members of the Wong group to fabricate CNT devices and on a GCEP project to use SWNTs for hydrogen storage. In her spare time, Cara likes to ride horses, hike, raise chinchillas, and create stained glass windows.

Dan started his career in materials science at Georgia Tech with an undergraduate degree and research focused on applications of atomic layer deposition in photonic crystal fabrication. However, at Stanford his research is focused on low cost, abundant, and non-toxic photovoltaic materials. Read more >>
