Halmos Chemist Publishes International Paper on Symmetry

Russell Driver, Ph.D.

This year, chemistry faculty Russell Driver, Ph.D. collaborated with researchers at KAIST in South Korea (KAIST). Part of Halmos College, Driver’s research focused on the structural elucidation of self-assembling organic materials and the processes that influence nanoscale symmetry selection.

For this paper, published in Small – Wiley Online Library, Driver solved the single crystal X-ray structures of many of the folders in the paper which was published on the inside front cover.

With a 2020 Journal Impact Factor of 13.281 (Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2021)), Small continues to be among the top multidisciplinary journals covering a broad spectrum of topics at the nano- and microscale at the interface of materials science, chemistry, physics, engineering, medicine, and biology.
