More than 300 attended the inaugural Triangle Hard Matter Workshop, hosted virtually by the Duke Materials Initiative.
The program had three tracks:
- Energy Materials
- Metamaterials
- Quantum Materials
“Collaboration really is a core strength of DMI and Duke. And, the Triangle Hard Matter Workshop is another example of that strength."
