Research Interest
Smart use and management of energy is rapidly becoming one of the most basic requirements for a sustainable future. A fundamental solution to this is designing devices with ultralow energy consumption, minimising all the parasitic energy losses (electrical, thermal, mechanical) which make devices power-hungry and also less performant. Low energy consumption needs to be complemented with efficient energy storage. Graphene and other 2D materials can enable all of these functionalities.
