Our research focuses on synthesis, characterization, engineering, and simulation of nanostructured materials and systems for photonic, energy,  chemical conversion, and biological applications.


We seek to understand how size, morphology, organization, and surface structure affect the physicochemical properties and behavior of materials over different length, time, and energy scales.


Current Research Interests:

•    III-nitrides, micro/nano-LEDs, photonics
•    Spectroelectrochemistry of biological molecules
•    Atmospheric pressure plasmas (μμplasmas & DBDs)
•    Hydrocarbon conversion & catalysis
•    Soft robotics & actuators
•    Light-matter interactions & plasmonics
