معرفی
Stephanie Wunder is a Professor in the Department of Chemistry at Temple University's College of Science and Technology. Her research focuses on advanced materials for energy storage including solid electrolytes for lithium/sodium batteries, polymer electrolytes, ion gels, and soft solid crystals. She also investigates nanoparticle-supported lipid bilayers for environmental and biomedical applications.
Education:
- Postdoctoral Researcher, Naval Research Laboratory (1979-1981)
- Ph.D., University of Massachusetts (1978)
- B.S., Barnard College, Columbia University (1969)
Her research bridges fundamental materials chemistry with practical applications in safer energy storage devices and environmental remediation. The work combines experimental characterization of ionic transport mechanisms with nanomaterial design principles.
Recent publications demonstrate a consistent focus on electrolyte materials innovation, particularly cocrystalline systems that combine organic and inorganic advantages. Key themes include ion transport optimization, thermal/electrochemical stability enhancement, and novel synthesis approaches for battery technologies.
She directs research activities from Beury Hall 348, where she investigates molecular-level phenomena in energy materials using advanced spectroscopic and electrochemical techniques.
