From the Stone Age to the present Silicon Era, civilization of man has been accomplished by the use of many new materials. Breakthrough in the growth of prospective materials and discovery of new functional materials are both important for the advancement of materials science and civilization. We aim to understand the Physics and Chemistry of materials synthesis that allow rational control of materials formation and their properties. Capabilities to control the growth and properties of materials are important for the realization of their applications in advanced electronic, photonic, chemical, electrochemical, and biological devices. Our research interests are on the preparation, characterization and application of novel materials in the forms of bulk, thin films and nanostructures.
