Materials, process, and metrology

Research and development portfolio

My research connects how two-dimensional materials are produced with their structure, quality, and possible uses. I study graphene, hexagonal boron nitride, and molybdenum disulfide through experiments and modeling.

Compressible flow exfoliation

High-pressure gas flow can separate layered feedstocks into thinner nanoplatelets. I investigate pressure, temperature, carrier gas, and flow conditions to understand material quality and production behavior.

Characterization and process feedback

Microscopy and spectroscopy reveal morphology, chemistry, structure, and defects. These measurements help connect a change in processing conditions with the material produced.

Modeling and scale-up

Computational fluid dynamics and molecular simulations help test mechanisms and guide experiments. I also explore industry needs and adoption barriers for scalable nanomaterial production.
