Kopal Nihar
Postdoctoral Scholar, Civil and Environmental Engineering
BioI am a postdoctoral scholar working with Dr. Catherine Gorle, Dr. Sarah Billington and Dr. Rishee Jain. I also did a PhD from Stanford advised by Dr Rishee Jain at Urban Informatics Lab. My research interest lies in understanding data-driven human-building interactions and impact of indoor air quality on occupant behaviour, especially for the purpose of natural cooling.

Frederick U Nitta
Ph.D. Student in Electrical Engineering, admitted Autumn 2024
BioFrederick received his B.S. with EE and Chemistry from Stanford (2024), alongside a co-term in MSE (2024) at Stanford. He completed his EE honors thesis with Prof. Krishna Saraswat and Prof. Eric Pop on the efficiency limits of transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) solar cells, receiving the Firestone Medal for Excellence in Undergraduate Research. He is now pursuing his Ph.D. in EE, on 3R-phase TMDs and their bulk photovoltaic effect, and on the physics and applications of transition metal oxides. He is co-advised by Prof. Eric Pop and Prof. Andrew Mannix.

William Nix
Lee Otterson Professor in the School of Engineering, Emeritus
BioI have been engaged in the study of mechanical properties of materials for nearly 50 years. My early work was on high temperature creep and fracture of metals, focusing on techniques for measuring internal back stresses in deforming metals and featuring the modeling of diffusional deformation and cavity growth processes. My students and I also studied high temperature dispersion strengthening mechanisms and described the effects of threshold stresses on these creep processes. Since the mid-1980's we have focused most of our attention on the mechanical properties of thin film materials used in microprocessors and related devices. We have developed many of the techniques that are now used to study of thin film mechanical properties, including nanoindentation, substrate curvature methods, bulge testing methods and the mechanical testing of micromachined (MEMS) structures. We are also known for our work on the mechanisms of strain relaxation in heteroepitaxial thin films and plastic deformation of thin metal films on substrates. In addition we have engaged in research on the growth, characterization and modeling of thin film microstructures, especially as they relate to the development of intrinsic stresses. Some of our recent work dealt with the mechanical properties of nanostructures and with strain gradients and size effects on the mechanical properties of crystalline materials. Our most recent work deals with the mechanical properties of lithiated nanostructures that are being considered for lithium-ion battery applications.
