Weizmann Institute of Science, Israel

Biography

Jacob Sagiv is a Professor in the Weizmann Institute Department of Materials and Interfaces. He received the BSc in Chemistry and Physics from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, and PhD (1975) from the Weizmann Institute. As postdoctoral fellow (1975-1978, with Prof. Hans Kuhn) at Max Planck Institute for Biophysical Chemistry, Göttingen, J. Sagiv pioneered the modern research area of monolayer self assembly (J. Chem. Phys. 1978, 69, 1836-1847; J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1980, 102, 92-98). The term “self-assembling monolayer” was coined in 1983 (New Scientist 1983, 98, 20) with reference to the advancement by Sagiv group at WIS of the concept of chemically controlled layer-by-layer self-assembly (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1983, 105, 674-676). The nondestructive chemical patterning of highly ordered self-assembled mono- and multilayers and special applications based on such purpose-designed synthetic structures have been central topics of Sagiv group’s research at WIS.

The 2005 Prize for Excellence of the Israel Chemical Society, “for pioneering contributions to modern surface science by developing the self-assembly method of ordered arrays of molecules on surfaces.” The 2010 Kolthoff Prize in Chemistry, awarded by the Technion - Israel Institute of Technology. The 2015 Prize for Excellence in Research of the Israel Vacuum Society.
