Sarbajit Banerjee, assistant professor of chemistry, was interviewed on Northeast Public Radio's Academic Minute about his research on vanadium oxide. Vanadium oxide, a synthetic compound with unique, temperature-sensitive properties, could one day be used in the coatings of "smart" windows that reflect heat from the sun only on hot days. An article also appeared on Inside Higher Ed.
