Delia J. Milliron is the T. Brockett Hudson Professor in Chemical Engineering at the University of Texas at Austin.[1] Milliron leads a research team that focuses on developing and studying the properties of new electronic nanomaterials.[2] Her team pursues studies on nanocrystals, nanoscale interfaces, and controlled assemblies of nanocrystals. Her team takes a systematic approach towards elucidating effects that arise at the nanoscale with a special focus on structure-property relationships.
Among many other topics, she is well known for her discoveries leading to development and innovation of technologies in the energy sciences. For her development of energy-efficient "smart window" coating technologies, Milliron is the co-founder and chief scientific officer of Heliotrope Technologies.[3]
