I am a first-year DPhil student working in the Semiconductors Group, under Professor Laura Herz.
My research focuses on investigating charge-carrier dynamics for hybrid lead perovskite for photovoltaic applications. Perovskites have exhibited excellent optoelectronic properties that have made them the center of much-deserved interest and research over the past decade. They possess a large and broad absorption coefficient spectrum, tunable band gaps, large diffusion lengths exceeding micron length scales, and are made with facile fabrication methods.
Improvements to their moisture and long term operational stability, and investigations into perovskite films with lower dimensionality and confinement effects, will lead the way for perovskites to strongly contribute to the future of photovoltaics and renewable energy sources, and increase their potential real-life applications.
I am passionate about climate change, renewable energy, and I love playing sports (manly tennis and rowing)!
