Vancover, BC -- (SBWIRE) -- 09/29/2014 -- Being associated with the notable RICE University, Emilie Ringe's Research now gets new momentum in her current and developing projects is the field of plasmonics, catalysis, and alloys. Holding the position as a team leader in the research group, Emilie Ringe along with her team is working intensively on materials and electron microscopy research which focuses in the identification and characterizing the composition and structural of nanomaterials which plays a key role in controlling sensing, catalysis and Plasmonic light localization. Her team used a wide variety of advanced techniques with a special emphasis on state-of-the-art electron beam spectroscopy, optical techniques, and theoretical modelling.

They further collaborated with a wide dimension of distinguished scientist from within the department, across the campus and also from nationally and internationally for drawing help for their research work. Students who are working in the research group of Emilie Ringe in Houston will get an excellent platform to learn and expertise in electron microscopy and spectroscopy which are highly demandable skills in the current job realm.

Being an assistant professor of Materials Science and Nano engineering and also an Assistant Professor of Chemistry at Rice University, Emilie Ringe's contribution to the research work is cardinal. Professor Emilie Ringe's research work is driven by her current interest in atomic resolution and three dimensional elemental mapping of alloy nanoparticles.

Talking more about Emilie Ringe, one of the representatives from RICE University stated, "She earned her B.A./M.S. (summa cum laude) as well as her Ph.D. from Northwestern University where she held a Presidential Fellowship. Her M.S. thesis, carried under the supervision of James A. Ibers, is entitled "Structure Determination and Characterization of UCuOP, UCu0.6Sb2 and UFeSe3, Three Uranium Compounds Containing a First Row Transition Metal" and explored the synthesis, crystallography, and conductivity of uranium compounds with an aim at better understanding 3d/5f electron interactions."

Vancover, BC -- (SBWIRE) -- 08/29/2014 -- Holding significant and powerful academic degrees including M.S in organic chemistry and Ph.D from Northwestern University, Dr. Emilie Ringe has important things knowledge to share. In her Ph.D thesis entitled "Building the Nanoplasmonics Toolbox through Shape Modeling and Single Particle Optical Studies", Emilie Ringe explores the new statistical approach to the correlation of plasmonic behavioural and particle morphology. She developed new analytical methods to identify the shape of minute alloy and kinetically grown nanoparticles. She has been constantly associated with teaching and exploring more about chemistry. She has been part of many eminent international conferences and she organized a first Gordon Research Seminar on noble metal nanoparticles in 2012 which is a quintessential of its own genre.

Dr. Emilie Ringe has spent her valuable time from 2007 to 2008 in teaching students intensive general chemistry. In 2009 and 2010, she was exclusively indulged in mentoring high school teacher, which is a part of the RET program. In 2011, she took part in supervising a batch of summer undergraduate students regarding university level research. She is also an ardent member of science speaker and has been part of the many science theme play.

Currently Dr. Emilie Ringe is interested in exploring atomic resolution and 3D elemental mapping of alloy nanoparticles which is relevant for catalysis application and also she holds interest for near-field plasmon mapping using electron energy loss spectroscopy. She has also contributed many valuable journal papers like Kinetic and Thermodynamic Modified Wulff Constructions for Twinned Nanoparticles, The Optical Response of Shape Sorted, Faceted Gold Nanoparticles, Syntheses, Structure, Optical and Electronic Properties, Correlating the Structure and Localized Surface Plasmon Resonance of Single Silver Right Bipyramids, and lots more.

Vancover, BC -- (SBWIRE) -- 06/23/2014 -- Empowered by the Royal Society's Newton International Research Fellowship, Dr. Emilie Ringe is a dedicated Gott Junior Research Fellow at Trinity Hall. She is also a part of the Electron Microscopy Group in the Material Science and Metallurgy Department at Cambridge University that proudly displays all her research works and publications on its official website.

Dr. Ringe completed her Ph.D. from Northwestern University during which she worked on the thesis titled 'Building the Nanoplasmonics Toolbox through Shape Modeling and Single Particle Optical Studies'. The thesis is a detailed account of new statistical approaches deciphering the correlation between plasmonic behaviour and particle morphology in Ag and Au (noble metal particles). The research work of Dr. Emily Ringe also includes development of new analytical models aimed to envisage the shape of small alloy and kinetically grown nanoparticles and small alloys. With strong research skills providing more and more knowledge in the field of material science and Nano engineering, Dr. Ringe actively attends and participates in international conferences and in 2012 she also organized the first Gordon Research Seminar on noble metal nanoparticles.

In addition to this, Dr. Emilie Ringe was also actively involved in science-based outreach aimed at school children during her Ph.D. years. When she is not engrossed with her academic endeavours, she likes to run and since 2009 she has been receiving training alongside blind athletes.

The website states, "Before joining the Ph.D. program, Emilie finished her B.A. and completed a M.S. at Northwestern University, after a transfer from McGill University. Her M.S. thesis, entitled 'Structure Determination and Characterization of UCuOP, UCu0.6Sb2 and UFeSe3, Three Uranium Compounds Containing a First Row Transition Metal' explored the synthesis, crystallography, and conductivity of uranium compounds with an aim at better understanding 3d/5f electron interactions. Emilie also worked outside of academia for 16 months as a formulation researcher at the pharmaceutical company Merck Frosst, during her B.Sc. studies at McGill University."

Atomic resolution and three dimensional elemental mapping of alloy nanoparticles relevant for catalysis applications are the current area of interests of Dr. Ringe.
