David Muller is the Samuel B. Eckert Professor of Engineering at the School of Applied and Engineering Physics at Cornell University and co-director of the Kavli Institute at Cornell for Nanoscale Science. His research is centered on the atomic-scale characterization and control of matter for applications in energy storage and conversion. He utilizes advanced electron microscopy techniques to explore new phases of two-dimensional materials that cannot exist in bulk and develops cutting-edge probability-current detectors and algorithms for measuring physical properties at atomic resolution. David obtained his graduate degrees from the University of Sydney and Cornell University, and has extensive experience in applied research at Bell Labs. His work spans various systems, including fuel cells, batteries, and superconductors, focusing on unraveling the connections between atomic-scale electronic structure and macroscopic material behavior. David's contributions have been recognized with numerous awards, including fellowships with the American Physical Society and the Microscopy Society of America, as well as several prestigious awards like the Ernst Ruska Prize and the Joseph F. Keithley Award.
