Molecular Spectroscopy Astrochemistry Quantum Chemistry 

My expertise is in the area of design, fabrication and printing of metal oxides, suflides and carbon based nanoionic materials for nanoelectronics (including sensors, memories and self-powered devices), as well as energy storage and conversion materials (including supercapacitor electrodes, solid-state electrolytes, and electro-catalysts)

My research contributions are in processing-structure-property relationships of structural alloys for high performance applications, with key interests in aerospace. Currently, these materials include Ni-based superalloys, advanced steels, Ti-alloys, and refractory metals processed by thermo-mechanical routes or 3D printing. I combine state-of-the-art experimental techniques such as multiscale correlative microscopy with mechanical testing and contemporary modelling approaches. My research philosophy is to achieve a balance between fundamental discovery and industrial application. I am excited about developing the next generation of structural metallic materials in collaboration with industrial partners.I am an editor of Journal of Materials Science, current vice chair of the TMS Phase Transformations Committee, and active member of other professional organisations such as Materials Australia.Check out 'Engineering Microstructures' (group website) and '3D Additive' for more information on my research:http://www.engineeringmicrostructures.comhttps://www.3dadditive.com.au
