Research interests
I specialise in the advanced characterisation of condensed matter systems, particularly in pursuit of next-generation energy materials. I employ a variety of modern characterisation technologies, with an emphasis on electron microscopy. Through correlative experimental methods, I seek to elucidate the relationship between structure and function to aid the development of new, highly functional material systems. Additionally, I am interested in combining materials to engineer novel composites with improved physical properties. Currently, I seek to harness my diverse background and expertise towards developing novel barocaloric materials as eco-friendly replacements for gaseous refrigerants. I am especially interested in multidisciplinary research, combining materials science, physics, chemistry and engineering towards developing sustainable materials solutions to global energy problems.
