Biography

I received my MSci and PhD degrees in Chemistry from the University of Nottingham in 2006 and 2010, respectively. I then joined the Nottingham Nanocarbon Group in the School of Chemistry, University of Nottingham as a Research Fellow.

My current role is Senior Research Fellow at the Nanoscale and Microscale Research Centre (nmRC), University of Nottingham.

Teaching Summary

I lead tutorials for the CHEM3063 (Catalysis, Bioinorganic and Supramolecular Chemistry) module.

I lead a mini research project in the third year undergraduate teaching laboratory focussing on the synthesis and catalytic properties of palladium nanoparticle/carbon nanotube nanocomposites.

Research Summary

My research interests include the preparation, manipulation and characterisation of a wide range of molecular, carbon and inorganic nanomaterials, with particular focus on the synthesis,… read more

Current Research

My research interests include the preparation, manipulation and characterisation of a wide range of molecular, carbon and inorganic nanomaterials, with particular focus on the synthesis, transformation and analysis of one-dimensional carbon nanostructures (nanotubes and nanofibres) and their composites by micro Raman spectroscopy.

I am responsible for the operation and management of the micro Raman spectroscopy facilities at the Nanoscale and Microscale Research Centre (nmRC).
