My name is Ben Dutton and I am a PhD student in the Materials Science and Engineering Program with Dr. John McCloy as my advisor. I received my Bachelor’s Degree in Materials Science and Engineering from Ohio State University where my undergraduate research focused on in-situ process monitoring of additively manufactured metals.  My current research entails growing single crystals of various materials (mostly oxides) by the Czochralski method. I am also interested in developing crucible free techniques to improve crystal quality and yield. Outside of school I enjoy soccer, snowboarding, cooking, hiking, and spending time with my family.
