Our group works with the:
Research Interests
High Pressure High Temperature Synthesis
Synthesis at 1–10 GPa allows us to prepare nanoscale crystals of diamond and silicon carbide containing color centers.
Crystal Formation Mechanisms and the Origins of Size and Polydispersity
In situ x-ray scattering kinetics studies of crystal nucleation and growth
Quantum Dot Synthesis and Solid State Lighting
Precursor reagent design and microstructural control in solid solutions and heterostructures for color down conversion.
Surface Coordination Chemistry
Stereoelectronic effects on the binding of ligands to surfaces and its role in the passivation of surface trap states and photoredox chemistry.
