The focus research area can be described as “Printed electronics with solution processable nanomaterials and organic semiconductors”. This serves as a platform for the development of novel devices for large area electronic applications with strategic overlap with EPSRC directions in Energy, Environment and Health.

Research activities are aimed at developing printed large area electronics at Surrey in synergy with ATI strategic activities, and utilising important collaborations with industrial and academic partners specialising in chemical synthesis, nanomaterials, sensor applications, metrology, printable devices, nanoparticle inks, organic semiconductors.

Immediate areas of research are: organic semiconductors for artificial retina, ultra-flexible electronics, printable device applications for reconfigurable RF electronics, nano-scale high resolution scanning probe techniques, advanced solution deposition techniques for semiconducting nanoparticles and conjugated molecules, low-power consumption FETs and high-resolution ink-jet printing.
