Research Statement
We are a physical chemistry and materials science group whose overarching research goals include (i) combining chemical synthesis with nanoscale patterning to create unique inorganic nanostructures and (ii) designing plasmonic materials to investigate how they can manipulate light on the nanometer scale. We are approaching these interesting problems by combining both top-down and bottom-up methods.
