Arnold Guloy is an American chemist who is Professor of Chemistry at the University of Houston.[1] He is an expert in the area Zintl phases chemistry, crystal growth, materials discovery, and superconductivity.
Education
[edit]Guloy completed his undergraduate studies at the University of the Philippines in 1985. He earned his doctoral degree at the Iowa State University in 1991.[1] His thesis topic was studying the synthesis, structure, and properties of polar intermetallic tetrelides of the rare-earth and alkaline-earth metals. Guloy performed postdoctoral research at the IBM TJ Watson Research Center under the supervision of David Mitzi where he co-discovered conducting tin halides with a layered organic-based perovskite structure.[2][3][4] These and similar materials are the basis of perovskite solar cells.
Research and career
[edit]At the University of Houston, Guloy investigates the structural and physical properties of Zintl phases and intermetallic materials with a focus on transport properties and novel materials. He has been a professor of chemistry at the University of Houston since 1993 rising through the ranks to become the John and Rebecca Moores Professor at the University of Houston in 2015.[1][5] In 1998 he was awarded an National Science Foundation CAREER Award. He was a visiting professor at Sun Yat-Sen University in 2015 and was awarded the Distinguished Visiting Scholar-Lecturer Award from Chungnam National University, Daejun, Korea in 2009.
