He invented, together with Alfred Cerezo and Terry Godfrey, the Atom-Probe Tomograph in 1988. Education and careerGeorge D. W. Smith graduated from Oxford with a metallurgy degree in 1965, and did postgraduate work in the Chemistry Department, where he used the field emission microscope and the field ion microscope to study the epitaxial growth of nickel on tungsten. Smith returned to the Department of Materials [1] where he worked as a Postdoctoral Research Fellow with Sir Peter Hirsch to establish a research group for metallurgical field ion microscopy. He led the Oxford research group where Cerezo, Smith, and Godfrey developed novel atom probe techniques for the direct observation of solid materials in three dimensions on the atomic scale. Together with Oxford colleagues, he founded a spin-out company, Oxford Nanoscience Ltd., which is part of Cameca Instruments Inc., manufacturer of equipment for nanotechnology research. He was elected Fellow of the Royal Society in 1996, and was member of its Executive Council from 2002 to 2004. From 1997 to 2005 he served on the Council of the Institute of Materials, being vice President in 2002. He was the founding chair of the Institute of Materials Nanomaterials and Nanotechnology Committee,[2] and also chaired the First International Conference on Nanomaterials and Nanomanufacturing (London, UK, 2003). From 2000 to 2005 he was Head of the Department of Materials at the University of Oxford.[1][3] From 2005 to 2011 he was a member of the Advisory Council of the British Library. He is a member of the DBERR Energy Materials Advisory Group, and was the lead author of the 2007 DTI / MatUK[4] report on Nuclear Energy Materials[5] (Note that this set of 2007 Working Group reports also accurately predicted a forthcoming energy crisis around 2015). He was the UK leader for the UK-China Partnership in Science, in the areas of Materials Science and Nanotechnology (2007–08), and chaired an international panel which reviewed the RCUK nanoscience programme (2009–10). He officially retired from his academic post in Oxford in 2010, but continues to be active in research as an Emeritus Professor of Materials, and as an external consultant to an energy company. He is also an Honorary Professor at the University of Science and Technology Beijing, an Advisory Professor at Chongqing University. Within Oxford, he is an Honorary Fellow of Corpus Christi College[6] and an Emeritus Fellow of both Trinity and St Cross[7] Colleges. He has published extensively on the subjects of phase transformations and phase stability in metals and alloys, and on the atomic scale structure and chemistry of catalyst surfaces. He is author of 2 books [8][9] and over 350 scientific papers [10] Awards and honours
The company Oxford Nanoscience Ltd. received several awards for its technological achievements, including an International Research and Development Award (1993), Prince of Wales Award for Innovation (1997),[18] Millennium Product Designation (1998), and a DTI National Award for Innovative Measurement (2004).[19] Summary of interests
