James&#8217;s poster presented evidence that the presence of sodium ions, thought to be important in the growth of bulk crystals, is not necessary in thin-film growth.\u00a0 Bethany Matthews and Janet Tate were co-authors on the poster.\u00a0 Last year at the Fall MRS meeting, James and Bethany both won best poster awards &#8211; maybe a three-peat in 2017?!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The annual Fall Meeting of the Materials Research Society&#8217;s &#8220;best poster&#8221; awards are eagerly anticipated, and this year, James Haggerty garnered his second one.
