Jillian M. Buriak FRSC is a Canadian chemist,currently a Canada Research Chair [1] in nanomaterials at University of Alberta. She is known for her work developing flexible,lightweight solar cells made from nanoparticles.
Buriak completed an A.B. degree at Harvard University (1990) and a Ph.D. at UniversitéLouis Pasteur (1995),Strasbourg,working on organometallic chemistry and catalysis. She held a postdoctoral appointment at the Scripps Research Institute at La Jolla,California,working on self-assembly of nanostructures on surfaces.
Buriak started her independent faculty career at Purdue University in 1997,was promoted to associate professor,with tenure,in 2001. In 2003,she joined the University of Alberta as a full professor.
From 2003 to 2008,Buriak was on the Board of Reviewing Editors (BoRE) at Science (handling 7-10 papers per week). She was an associate editor at ACS Nano from 2009 to 2013 (handling >500 papers per year). In 2014,she was appointed as the editor-in-chief of Chemistry of Materials ,handling ~5000 papers per year. [2]
Buriak is interested in materials for energy,nanomaterials synthesis,silicon surface chemistry,and block copolymer self assembly. [3]
By spraying a plastic surface with nanomaterials,her work showed the ability to fabricate a transparent layer of electrode that acts as solar cells. Due to their flexibility,they could be incorporated onto different surfaces. [4]
