  1. Contact Information James P. Lewis Department of Physics West Virginia University 801-330-3790 James.Lewis@mail.wvu.edu

  2. Experience / Expertise • PhD in Condensed Matter Physics • Computational Condensed Matter – develop our own software – optimized for evaluating materials properties (electronic and optical) of larger systems and simulating reactions • Research projects related to catalysis and photocatalysis (highly cited research) • Materials by Design

  3. Materials-Related Facilities and Current Projects • Facilities: Mid-size computing cluster (152 processors overall); proposed high-performance computing facility of over 500 processors is pending; Teragrid (NSF) access • Current Research: TiO2 Nanoparticles and other Nanostructures Metal Organic Frameworks • Molecule Adsorption (CO2 trapping) - with J. Karl Johnson (University of Pittsburgh) • Photoactive MOFs and ZIFs – photovoltaics and photocatalysis with X. Shi (WVU, Chemistry) • Catalysis • Photocatalysis (properties of nanowires with N. Wu) • CO2 conversion in nitride sensitized TiO2

  4. Future Research Interests in the Energy-Related Materials Area Any energy-materials related research: Electronic properties of materials and reduction or oxidation chemistry Hardness of materials Corrosion of materials Alloy Properties (high temperature, high pressure)
