(2019). doi: 10.1021/acsapm.9b00016 With the advent of additive manufacturing methods combined with the increased interest in using nanoparticle components to formulate energetics materials, structure-function relationships...

After more than 15 years with the University of Maryland College Park, Dr. Zachariah moved to the University of California Riverside in January 2019 along with five graduate students and one postdoctoral associate. The impromptu group picture above was taken after everything had been moved out of the UMD Chemistry building following two intense days...
