研究领域

Materials and Inorganic Chemistry

The group’s research uses epitaxial films to study functional materials. One important application of this is the study of photocatalysts – materials that use light to stimulate chemical reactions. Our research aims to produce structurally simple samples, from which strong conclusions can be drawn on structure-function relationships. Areas of interest include solid state Z schemes, new non-oxide photocatalysts and understanding the behaviour of dopants in TiO2.
