We investigate the magnetic spin dynamics of bulk systems as quantum effects start to become relevant at low temperature. We do this by looking at spin relaxation using a variety of experimental probes.
We investigate the quantum properties of devices made from superconducting diamond. Diamond has obvious industrial uses because of its inherent hardness, but we are interested in exploiting its properties when it is doped with Boron.
Oxide-ion conductors for energy and environmental applications. Oxide-ion conductors are key components in energy-related (solid oxide fuel cells) and environmental applications (gas sensors/separation membranes).
The candidate will explore the novel optical properties of various nanostructures based on metals (e.g., gold and silver) and dielectrics (e.g., amorphous silicon, titanium dioxide).
Flat optics has provided new opportunities for the development of ultrathin devices with unusual functionalities, which are ideal for device miniaturization and system integration.
The interactions of gas-phase molecules with the surfaces of liquids are important in a number of real-world environments. Their study presents a number of serious experimental challenges, because of the difficulties of developing surface-sensitive methods that can be coupled with liquid-phase samples.
