Boron Nitride Nanomaterials

Ben McLean is a postdoctoral research fellow at the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology (RMIT), Australia. He received his PhD in chemistry from the University of Newcastle, Australia, in 2020. Following his PhD, Dr. McLean worked as a senior researcher under Prof. Feng Ding at the Institute for Basic Science, South Korea, and worked in collaboration with Prof. Esko Kauppinen at Aalto University, Finland. His research has resulted in 15 academic publications, focusing on the growth mechanisms of carbon and boron nitride nanotubes. Alister J. Page is a professor of physical and computational chemistry at the University of Newcastle, Australia. He completed his BMath/BSc degrees in 2005 before pursuing PhD research in 2006 under the supervision of Prof. Ellak I. von Nagy-Felsobuki in the field of fundamental quantum chemistry and spectroscopy. He subsequently held a Fukui Fellowship at Kyoto University, working under the postdoctoral supervision of Prof. Keiji Morokuma, before returning to Newcastle in 2013. Prof. Page’s research spans multiple fields within computational, physical and materials chemistry, including nanomaterial self-assembly and growth, condensed phases, specific ion effects, complex liquids, heterogeneous catalysts, and computational method development.
