While there, he studied the chemistry of vapor-liquid- solid nanowire growth<br \/>\nwith in situ FTIR under the guidance of Dr. Michael Filler. Later in 2011, Matthew moved to the<br \/>\ndepartment of chemical engineering at the University of Washington to pursue a Ph.D. Along<br \/>\nthis path, he acquired an M.S. working for Dr. Samson Jenekhe to characterize the influence of<br \/>\nsurface energy on phase segregation in organic photovoltaic thin films and to investigate high<br \/>\nefficiency non-fullerene electron acceptors with density functional theory. Matthew then worked<br \/>\nwith Dr. Peter Pauzauskie on two projects. In the first of these, he used optical tweezers to study<br \/>\nchemistry in superheated nanostructures and, along that path, the impact of solvent choice on<br \/>\ntrapping forces. In the second, he demonstrated the molecular doping of carbon precursors and<br \/>\nsubsequent high pressure, high temperature conversion to doped nanodiamond. Throughout these<br \/>\nstudies, he won a range of national and international awards, including the National Defense<br \/>\nScience and Engineering Research Fellowship from the Office of Naval Research, a Joseph<br \/>\nGoldstein Fellowship from the Microanalysis Society, and President\u2019s Scholarship from the<br \/>\nGeorgia Institute of Technology.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Publications:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>M.J.
