Eligible to supervise Masters and PhD - email supervisor to discuss availability.

I am a Future Making Fellow at School of Chemical Engineering (SCE) and the Institute for Photonics and Advanced Sensing (IPAS) at the University of Adelaide.

My research focuses on the nanofabrication of photonics, plasmonic and iontronic structures with precisely engineered properties to control light–matter interaction and ion–surface interaction at the nanoscale, which can be applied in applications such as optical chemo- and biosensors, lab-on-a chip systems, iontronics, and energy generation systems.

I am building an international profile as an early career researcher in nanofabrication, applied photonics, optical chemical and biological sensing, iontronic systems for sensors, osmotic energy harvester, and neuromorphic computing.

Nanofabrication and Nanostructures: We have developed new nanofabrication approaches to create nanoporous photonic, plasmonic, and iontronic nanostructures with precisely engineered geometric features to fine-tune their properties (i.e., optical signals and ionic conductivity) at the nanoscale.

Surface Chemistry Engineering: We have generated novel surface chemistries to control interfacial interactions for sensing and molecular transport applications, including selective immobilisation of target analytes and antifouling molecules.

Lab-on-a-chip Chemical Sensing and Biosensing: We have integrated nanoporous structures into a label-free functional sensing systems with environment and biomedical applicability. This includes the detection of heavy metal ions in environmental water sources, assessment of binding affinity of biomolecules and quantification of smoke taints in wines.

Iontronic Systems: We have developed iontronic systems that use ions as signal carriers to generate electrical signals. The rectifying effect of nanoporous membrane in this system can be harnessed to not only generate osmotic energy but also use as sensing principle to detect target analytes.
