Looking both at the growth and morphology of individual particles and the architectures that they can form.
At present I am studying the crystal structure and morphology of high aspect ratio gold nanorods (20 x 300 nm) using HRTEM and electron diffraction.
I received my M.Chem degree from the University of Liverpool where I worked for Dr. M. Brust during my research project.
I also enjoy photography, music (listening to) and when money and time allow, travelling.
