In this virtual lecture, Jane P. Chang, 2023–2024 Edward, Frances, and Shirley B. Daniels Fellow, will explore the interdisciplinary intersection of microelectronics materials processing and physical chemistry, leveraging the studies and understanding of surface reaction controlled chemical selectivity in atomic layer etching to de-poison the catalysts, thereby realizing sustainability in chemical processing

Clay minerals are among the most abundant and sustainable on earth, and due to this and their low-cost they are found in many traditional applications that exploit their physical and chemical properties, including their mechanical stability, their non-toxicity and in effect their underlying 2D nanoscale character.

The clean energy transition is imperative for mitigating climate change and ensuring a sustainable future. Electrochemical technologies such as batteries, powered by abundant and cheap renewable electricity, will play an important role in the energy transition. The electrolyte is an indispensable component of any electrochemical system, impacting the electrochemical stability, reaction kinetics and transport properties.

Join us for this MDE Talk to hear from Juliet Russell, Head of Sustainability at Stella McCartney.

With experience working across a variety of industries in Impact and Sustainability and spending time at brands including Stella McCartney and PANGAIA, Juliet explores what it means to work in this space within the fashion industry, whilst bringing an academic perspective to what is often of creative & business dominance.
