  • Dr. Marx is an experimental solid state physicist. His research program generally includes the synthesis and characterization of bulk, thin film, and nanocrystalline materials. Characterization includes structural, electrical, and thermal properties. Dr. Marx is currently focused on energy conversion devices including photovoltaics and thermoelectrics, particularly those incorporating novel nanoscale technologies.

    Dr. Marx is a co-founder of Nanotechnology Program of Excellence and a member of the Energy Program of Excelence in the College of Arts and Sciences at Illinois State University.

    Dr. Marx is also co-advising the ISU Solar Car Project: Team Mercury in which students carry out work on a solar-powered car and participate in the North American Solar Challenge. The students will race from Texas to Canada in July 2008 in an all-new car. Here are some links for that project:
