My research is focused on the application of nano-structured material in energy conversion devices, such as photovoltaic devices. Specific energy technology areas that I targets are photovoltaic devices, where the focus is on the synthesis and characterisation of silicon-alloyed nanostructures, perovskite photovoltaics and nano-metrology. Crucial to the development of such devices is the understanding of the structure-property-relationship of the constituent nano-structured material and its eventual impact on the electrical properties and stability of the devices. I have published several papers in international accredited peer-reviewed journals and regularly supervises MSc and PhD students.
