Ag–Ag2S Hybrid Nanoprisms: Structural versus Plasmonic Evolution, Accepted in ACS nano, Mohammad M. Shahjamali, Yong Zhou, Negin Zaraee, Can Xue, Jinsong Wu, Nicolas Large, C. Michael McGuirk, Freddy Boey, Vinayak Dravid, Zhifeng Cui, George C. Schatz, Chad A. Mirkin [LINK]
Mohammad Shahjamali obtained his B.Sc. degree in Materials Science from Shiraz University in 2008. After that, he moved to Nanyang Technological University (NTU) in Singapore and obtained his Ph.D degree in Materials Science in 2012 under the direction of Prof. Freddy Boey and Prof. Can Xue. In 2013, he joined Prof. Chad Mirkin's group at Northwestern University and International Institute for Nanotechnology(IIN) as a postdoctoral fellow. Currently he is a postdoctoral fellow in School of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Harvard University in Manoharan lab and working on self-assembly of nanowires to make braided nanostructures with collaboration with Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and Draper laboratory.
His research interest is in the synthesis, optical properties, functionalization and application of nanostructured materials of noble metals, a class of new materials with at least one dimension at the nanometer scale. These materials are sometimes referred to as ‘artificial atoms’ because the density of their electronic states, which controls many physical properties, can be widely and easily tuned by adjusting size, shape, composition, crystal structure, and surface properties. Dr. Shahjamali's research therefore is trying to understand the formation and properties of nanostructures, design and fabricate novel electronic and photonic devices and other functional materials based on these nanostructures. Specifically, his research topics include:
• Anisotropic plasmonic nanostructure: synthesis and surface modification
• Colloidal-nanoparticle-superlattice engineered with DNA
• Self-assembly approaches for nanoelectronic and nanophotonic
• Colloidal and interface chemistry
