My background is in engineering, I am now specialising in nanoscale manipulation of materials. I do this kind of research because I find it challenging and rewarding.
Education:
Postgrad: MS Engineering (Mechanical)
Undergrad: Ba Engineering (Mechanical)
Current research:
We are attempting to manipulate silicon carbide (SiC) substrates to grow epitaxial graphene over small nanostructures with lateral sizes ranging from tens of nm to 1 µm. Nanostructures are formed using Focused Ion Beam (FIB) technology. Graphene is grown by annealing in ultra-high vacuum. The aim is to produce novel 2D materials with potential applications in electronics and computing.
