DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Vanessa Wood\nhosted by Maria Ibanez\nAbstract: Soluti
 on- and slurry-processing techniques offer possibilities for scalable and 
 low-cost manufacturing. Today\, these techniques enable technologies such 
 as lithium ion batteries and promise to play a future role in a wide varie
 ty of electronic\, photonic\, and electrochemical systems. Materials and d
 evices made from these approaches often have hierarchical structures and c
 omplex interfaces. To realize the full potential of solution–processed s
 ystems\, understanding structure-performance relationships is critical.In 
 this talk\, I will present two examples of how my group uses neutrons\, el
 ectrons\, and photons to characterize structure at different length scales
  and to gain insights into performance limitations of solution-processed s
 ystems. My group then applies these findings to develop design guidelines 
 for systematic improvement of materials and devices. First\, I will descri
 be how x-ray and electron tomography has enabled us to quantify microstruc
 ture in lithium ion batteries and understand transport limitations. Second
 \, I will explain ultra-fast electron dynamics\, inelastic neutron scatter
 ing\, and ab-initio molecular dynamics investigation of phonon density of 
 states has allowed us to understand why specific surface treatments applie
 d to nanocrystalline materials improves their performance in optoelectroni
 c devices.Bio:Vanessa Wood holds a Bachelors in Science from Yale Universi
 ty in Applied Physics\, a Masters and PhD in Electrical Engineering from M
 assachusetts Institute of Technology.  In 2011\, she was appointed as an 
 assistant professor in Department of Information Technology and Electrical
  Engineering at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH Zürich). S
 he received tenure in 2014 and holds the chair in Materials and Device Eng
 ineering. She won the 2018 Young Investigator Award of the Materials Resea
 rch Society. She actively support entrepreneurships\, with two spin-off co
 mpanies founded out of her group. In addition to her she served as Head of
  the Department of Information Technology and Electrical Engineering for 3
  years from 2018 to 2021 and since 2021 was appointed as Vice President Kn
 owledge Transfer and Corporate Relations at ETH.
