Barry Carter is a professor of Materials Science and Engineering at the University of Connecticut in Storrs, Connecticut.[1] He is a CINT Distinguished Affiliate Scientist at Sandia National Laboratories[2] and editor-in-chief of the Journal of Materials Science.[3] Carter's research areas of focus include Transmission Electron Microscopy and Atomic-force microscopy.[1]

Education

[edit]

Carter received his B.A. (1970), M.A. (1974), and Sc.D. (2005) in Natural Sciences from Cambridge University, his M.Sc. in Materials Science in 1971 from Imperial College, and his D. Phil. in Metallurgy & Science of Materials from Oxford University in 1976.

Career

[edit]

Carter spent 14 years as a professor in the Department of Chemical Engineering and Materials Science at Cornell University.[4] He then spent 16 years as a professor and the 3M Endowed Multidisciplinary Chair in the Department of Chemical Engineering and Materials Science at the University of Minnesota.[5] Carter chaired the University of Connecticut's Department of Chemical, Materials, and Biomolecular Engineering for 5 years.[5] He had earlier held visiting positions at LANL (as the Bernd T. Matthias Scholar), Chalmers (as the 2004 Jubilee Professor), NIMS in Tsukuba, Bristol University, Max Planck Institute in Stuttgart, the Institute for Physical Chemistry in Hanover and the Ernst Ruska Center in Jülich.[5] Carter is a Distinguished Affiliate Scientist at the Center for Integrated Nanotechnology.[6]
