WelcomeCurrently the group is exploring 2-Dimensional (2D) materials, such as graphene, dichalcogenides, and their combination in superlattices and hetero-structures in order to develop new electronic devices and photovoltaics compatible with low cost and flexible substrates. In particular, the group has a strong research activity on ink-jet printable 2D-crystal inks, which can be used to enable fabrication of flexible and low-cost devices such as sensors, photodetectors, transistors, etc. Many of the projects in this area are industry-funded. The group has also a leading activity on the application of Raman spectroscopy to carbon films, nanotubes and graphene and is also developing strategies to control polymorphism using 2D materials (ERC NOC2D project).
Do you want to JOIN OUR GROUP for a PhD? If you are a talented and strongly motivated student, you can apply for a President’s Doctoral Scholarship Award. Please get in touch with us.
Do you want to JOIN OUR GROUP for a Post-Doc? Are you at the beginning of your research career, with the potential to be world-class? Then you can apply for several prestigious Fellowships. Please get in touch with us.
