I am working in the field of reversible micro solid oxide cells for portable power applications. My research is focused on optimising reaction kinetics at the device electrodes to enable low-temperature operation through the use of novel material platforms such as vertically aligned nanocomposite (VAN) structures and high entropy oxides.

Research

Vertically aligned nanocomposite (VAN) films for SOFC's

Thin-film ionic devices

Alternative materials for plasmonic applications
