Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolDoinita Neiner is a PhD inorganic physical chemist with a decade of experience developing solid-state materials and translating lab-scale discoveries into scalable products at national labs and industry. Currently a scientist at Los Alamos National Laboratory, she has led synthesis, characterization, and process scale-up efforts across borates, hydrogen-storage materials, and actinide-containing systems, and holds multiple publications and pending patents. Her technical depth spans XRD/crystallography, NMR, thermal analysis, TEM, and advanced electrolyte and thermodynamic modeling, enabling practical solutions from fundamental mechanisms to thin-film crystallizer pilots. Notably, she has combined nanoparticle chemistry with hydride-transfer strategies to regenerate amine boranes and designed gram-scale routes to hydrogen-terminated silicon nanomaterials—work published in high-impact journals. Based in Los Alamos, she bridges rigorous academic research with hands-on industrial R&D to deliver deployable materials and processes.
