TEACHING EXPERIENCE (full responsibility for all courses)
Duke University, University Writing Program, Durham, NC
Senior Mellon Postdoctoral Fellow (2005)
Rhetoric of Detective Fiction: The course concerns the development of detective fiction as a
distinct genre during the nineteenth century. Students examine both shorter works by writers such
as Poe, Dickens, and Doyle as well as Wilkie Collins’s The Moonstone and detective fiction from
the early twentieth century such as The Maltese Falcon. In addition, we address critical and
theoretical works surrounding this genre from the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. A writing-
intensive course.
Mellon Fellow (2003-2004)
Narratives of Victorian Criminality: Students read fictional accounts of criminals, such as Oliver
Twist and stories by Arthur Conan Doyle and Edgar Allan Poe, in conjunction with critical,
philosophical, and scientific works by writers such as Michel Foucault and Stephen Jay Gould,
to explore the mechanism by which ideas about criminality arose and were disseminated during
the nineteenth century. A writing-intensive course.

The Rhetoric of Madness in Victorian Culture: The class examined texts, such as Dr. Jekyll
and Mr. Hyde and Robert Browning’s “Porphyria’s Lover” and “My Last Duchess,” that
portrayed the two sides of Victorian madness–the promise of freedom from social constraints
and the fear of unbridled irresponsibility. A writing-intensive course.
Imperial Dreams, Imperial Nightmares: The course focused on Victorian narratives of empire,
interweaving both fictional (Dracula and Kipling’s “The Strange Ride of Morrowbie Jukes”) and non-
fictional (Macaulay’s “A Minute on Indian Education” and “Stanley’s Account of Finding Livingstone”)
texts to examine the social debate surrounding Britain’s status as empire. A writing-intensive course.

Survey of Romantic, Victorian, and Modernist Literature (six sections, 1995-2001): This course,
required for English majors, focused on the formal features of poetry, the short story, and the novel
within the historical setting of nineteenth- and early twentieth-century Britain. Organized around topics,
such as “Progress” and “The Woman Question,” the course examined how these texts participated in
social debate and analyzed the cultural role played by art.

Ph.D. Candidate, 2002-present
• Nanowire growth
Proposed a model determining the obtainable minimum size of nanowires (NWs) grown by vapor-liquid-solid
(VLS) process, one of the most important methods for growing semiconductor nanostructures. Revived the
study on VLS mechanisms, and spurred a flurry of papers on the thermodynamic and kinetic analysis of the
process. Derived the growth rate formula, for the first time in the literature, using all physically meaningful
quantities without empirical fitting factors. Established a novel growth model by assuming a two-dimensional
island nucleation-growth process, which is, to the best of my knowledge, currently the only model that can
fit an extensive set of growth rate data on Si whiskers/nanowires.
• Diffusion and gettering
Explained how volume misfits between the metal precipitates and Si drastically prolongs the time needed for
Al gettering of solar cell Si. Proposed methods to effectively reduce the gettering time in the presence of
metal precipitates. Demonstrated that optical-assisted Al gettering process can reduce Al gettering time from
tens of hours to several minutes. Contributed to the understanding of the predominance of alternate diffusion
mechanisms for the interstitial-substitutional impurities in Si. (Above projects are financially supported by
National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL)).
Max-Plank-Institute for Microstructure Physics, Halle, Germany,
Visiting Scientist, Oct-Dec 2005
• Nanowire morphology—chemical tension
Formulated a model for describing the morphology of the growing nanowire, from the beginning of growth to
either a steadily growing wire with a constant diameter or a hillock for which the growth process terminates.
Included, for the first time in the literature, a dynamic chemical tension in analyzing the system equilibrium
configuration, in addition to the normally considered static physical tensions.

• Crystallization of SiO2
Participated in the discovery that lithium vapor can catalyze the crystallization of amorphous silica which is
integrated in the common silicon microstructures.
