John Ekerdt

Opening Session, 10.30 a.m.

UT Austin Portugal's Principal Investigator

John G. Ekerdt is the Associate Dean for Research in Engineering and the Dick Rothwell Endowed Chair in Chemical Engineering at the University of Texas at Austin. Using chemical and kinetic probes to unravel reaction pathways, mechanisms and reaction rates, his research has explored: 1) kinetics of single crystal, nanoparticle and ultrathin film growth, 2) chemistry that controls film and nanoparticle nucleation on surfaces and 3) relationships between precursor molecular structure, its reactivity and the properties of the electronic material that is grown. Current research interests focus on the surface, growth and materials chemistry of metal, dielectric and perovskite films and nanostructures.

John Ekerdt will participate in the opening session along with Vítor Vasconcelos (CIIMAR), José Manuel Mendonça (UT Austin Portugal Program), Madalena Alves (FCT) and Elvira Fortunato (Ministry of Science, Technology and Higher Education of Portugal).
