Research Areas

Prof. Werner’s research is focused on the fabrication of functional materials and structures with features sizes from the nano- to the micrometer scale, and its impact on material properties and performance. We discover and develop bottom-up fabrication paradigms with a high degree of spatial control utilizing both physical and chemical phenomena. Areas of current research include phase separation of complex suspensions for architected electrodes, self-assembly of block copolymers, and electrodeposition of polymer networks as functional coatings and interphases for novel architected energy storage and sustainability technologies.
