Current Research

My present research interests are concerned with the interrelationship between the processing, structure and functional properties of bulk, thin film and nanostructured materials, assessed using a broad range of characterisation techniques, with emphasis on high level and novel variants of electron microscopy. Direct observations made at atomic resolution combined with nm-scale chemical microanalysis enable the fundamental relationships between material formation processes, microstructure and functional properties to be effectively explored.

Future Research

I welcome enquiries from potential PhD candidates from Home, EU and international countries who are interested in the following research areas: Materials characterisation, transmission electron microscopy, functional materials, structural materials, biomaterials; nanotechnology.
