David C. Bell is the Gordon McKay Professor in Applied Physics at the John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences at Harvard University. He is also Associate Director of the Center for Nanoscale Systems. Bell studies the structure and properties of novel quantum materials, nanowires and materials for catalysis. The main thrust of his research facilitates the characterization of newly developed quantum materials and their properties. Bell investigates materials systems, including Graphene, topological insulators, vacancy (NV) centers in diamond, using theory and application of aberration-corrected and high-resolution analytical electron microscopy with particular application of low voltage and low dose electron microscopy to study the structure and properties of advanced material systems. Bell lectures on electron microscopy, cryo-EM, nanotechnology and microfluidics. He has authored numerous publications, patents and books (and most recently a chapter for “The Science of Microscopy” edited by Hawkes and Spence), he serves as Associate Editor of Ultramicroscopy. Professor Bell is a fellow of the Microscopy Society of America as well as of Royal Microscopical Society U.K.
