Biography
I obtained my Ph.D. from Rutgers University (NJ, USA) in Materials Science and Engineering in the group of Deirdre O'Carroll. The focus of my dissertation was on designing plasmonic metasurfaces for light-trapping in thin-film photovoltaics. I visited the Femtosecond Spectroscopy Unit for 10 weeks during the summer of 2015, and returned as a Special Research Student from Jul 2016 - Apr 2017. I started as a post-doc in Jun 2017, and my current research interests include: ultrafast dynamics of energy materials, van der Waals heterostructures, organic semiconductors, and plasmonic light-trapping.
