Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Polymer
  • Organic chemistry
  • Thermodynamics

Mark Ediger spends much of his time researching Supercooling, Glass transition, Chemical physics, Thermodynamics and Polymer. The Supercooling study combines topics in areas such as Relaxation, Molecule, Statistical physics and Terphenyl. His Glass transition research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Self-diffusion, Chemical vapor deposition, Nanometre, Physical vapor deposition and Analytical chemistry.

His Chemical physics study incorporates themes from Amorphous solid, Nanotechnology, Material properties and Dynamics. In general Thermodynamics, his work in Relaxation, Crystal growth and Diffusion is often linked to Growth rate linking many areas of study. The study incorporates disciplines such as Thin film, Polymer chemistry, Strain rate, Photobleaching and Creep in addition to Polymer.

His most cited work include:

  • Spatially Heterogeneous Dynamics in Supercooled Liquids (1614 citations)
  • Supercooled Liquids and Glasses (1453 citations)
  • Organic Glasses with Exceptional Thermodynamic and Kinetic Stability (467 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Glass transition, Chemical physics, Analytical chemistry, Supercooling and Polymer are his primary areas of study. His Glass transition study also includes fields such as

  • Chemical vapor deposition which is related to area like Liquid crystal,
  • Crystal growth which is related to area like Crystal. His Chemical physics research includes elements of Amorphous solid, Molecule, Photobleaching and Organic semiconductor.

His work deals with themes such as Length scale, Heat capacity and Dielectric, which intersect with Analytical chemistry. His Supercooling study improves the overall literature in Thermodynamics. His Polymer research incorporates elements of Polymer chemistry and Dynamics.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Glass transition (25.15%)
  • Chemical physics (22.39%)
  • Analytical chemistry (20.25%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Physical vapor deposition (16.26%)
  • Chemical physics (22.39%)
  • Glass transition (25.15%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His scientific interests lie mostly in Physical vapor deposition, Chemical physics, Glass transition, Chemical engineering and Anisotropy. The various areas that Mark Ediger examines in his Physical vapor deposition study include Crystal, Substrate, Deposition and Supercooling. His Deposition study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Scattering, Relaxation and Analytical chemistry.

In his study, Sphere packing is inextricably linked to Kinetic energy, which falls within the broad field of Analytical chemistry. His work in Chemical physics addresses issues such as Liquid crystal, which are connected to fields such as Deposition rate. His research in Glass transition intersects with topics in Methyl methacrylate, Relaxation, Molecule and Dielectric.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Anisotropic Vapor-Deposited Glasses: Hybrid Organic Solids. (18 citations)
  • Origin of Anisotropic Molecular Packing in Vapor-Deposited Alq3 Glasses (13 citations)
  • Vapor-Deposited Ethylbenzene Glasses Approach "Ideal Glass" Density. (12 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Polymer
  • Organic chemistry
  • Thermodynamics

Mark Ediger mainly investigates Physical vapor deposition, Chemical physics, Anisotropy, Liquid crystal and Chemical vapor deposition. His work carried out in the field of Physical vapor deposition brings together such families of science as Azobenzene, Substrate, Supercooling and Deposition. His study in Supercooling is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Thin film, Dielectric and Analytical chemistry.

His Analytical chemistry research incorporates elements of Dielectric loss, Work, Polyamorphism and Glass transition. He incorporates Chemical physics and Organic electronics in his studies. As part of the same scientific family, Mark Ediger usually focuses on Anisotropy, concentrating on Isotropy and intersecting with Semiconductor, Organic semiconductor and Molecule.
