Scott A. Barnett is
a Professor in the Materials Science and Engineering department at Northwestern University . He is also founder of Functional Coating Technology LLC. After receiving his Ph.D. in Metallurgy from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in 1982, he held postdoctoral appointments at the University of Illinois and Linkoping University ( Sweden ). He took his present position at Northwestern in 1986. His research focuses on thin films and coatings produced by ion-assisted deposition, physical vapor deposition, and colloidal deposition methods. His materials focus is on nano-layered nitride hard coatings, transparent conducting oxide thin films, and solid oxide fuel cells. Dr. Barnett has published over 160 papers in peer-reviewed journals, has 11 issued patents, and has been an invited speaker at many national and international conferences. In 1986 he was awarded the ONR Young Investigator Award, and in 1998 was honored as a Fellow of the American Vacuum Society. |
