A long overdue congrats to second year Sam Litvin…the Cahoon Lab’s newest NSF GRFP recipient is also officially a PhD candidate after passing her oral exam! 🎉 UNC-Chapel Hill Chemistry

On Fridays we grow silicon nanowires Elon Musk Cahoon Lab Bernal Institute Fulbright Ireland #battchat

For the past few months, we’ve been in the presence of a scholar! Dylan Storan joined our group as a Fulbright Ireland scholar, working in our nanowire diode project area. He has been a great asset to our research group and we will miss him so much when he returns to Ireland.

Had a lot of fun showing my research to UNC-Chapel Hill Chemistry yesterday. Not only did I get to speak about nanowires, but I got a free mug out of it too 🥳Elon Musk Bernal Institute Fulbright Ireland #stpattysday

On Wednesdays we fabricate single nanowire devices Cahoon Lab UNC-Chapel Hill Chemistry Elon Musk

Congrats to our newest PhD Candidate, Alicia Bryan! 🍾 Get ready for some awesome Perovskite discoveries in the future ☀️

We are excited to welcome new graduate student Hyunjung Lee to the Cahoon Lab! She will be working in our photonics project group ☀️ @ Chapel Hill, North Carolina instagram.com/p/Cck36awupZy/…

Delighted to get my first first-author paper published in @MaterialsToday Energy! We synthesized silicon nanowires on carbon cloth for flexible Li-ion battery anodes. Check it out below! Elon Musk Bernal Institute Chemical Sciences UL #battchat #batterytwitter sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Congrats to Cahoon Lab, Dr. Kanai, Dr. Moran, Jillian Dempsey, and Dr. Miller for their promotions to Full Professor! Promotion to Professor is awarded to faculty who have demonstrated excellence in teaching, research, and service to the University. ow.ly/F4hE50JMYtW

The 10th annual Triangle Student Research Competition is coming up in October in RTP! Come to network with industry and/or share your materials-focused research! Register and submit abstracts by September 19th at forms.gle/cr7ZumQ8EUyaag…

Big relief! Thanks to everyone at Chemical Sciences UL, Bernal Institute, UNC-Chapel Hill Chemistry and Cahoon Lab for everything over the last few years. #PhDone

5th year student Sarah Sutton from the Cahoon Lab taught us the fundamentals of optics, semi-conductors, and pump-probe microscopy! We’re happy we finally were able to put into context the random laser facts she tells at parties Sarah Sutton

Interested in learning about the graduate chemistry program at UNC Chapel Hill? Join us on October 26th at 7pm for a virtual information session with current students and faculty!

Meet our incredible Research Mentor Team Lead, Kelly White! Kelly is a 4th-year grad student in the chemistry department. In Prof. Jim Cahoon’s Lab, she studies silicon nanowire geometric diodes for high frequency applications.

@UNCResearch UNC Women in Science Cahoon Lab UNC-Chapel Hill Chemistry UNC Graduate School This is Kelly's second year on the organizational team and second year on the research mentor team! In her free time, she loves disc golfing with her dog, playing squash, cooking, and metalsmithing.

Delighted to graduate from the University of Limerick last week with a PhD on The Synthesis of Silicon and Germanium Nanowires for Energy Storage and Single Nanowire Devices. Thanks to everyone at Chemical Sciences UL, Bernal Institute,and UNC-Chapel Hill Chemistry! #PhDone
