Research_
Self-assembled nanomaterials
Focusing on molecular and nanoscale assembly
Our research includes experimental and computational work on molecular self-assembly, polymer nanoparticles and nanostructured surfaces. We address major societal challenges including sustainability and drug delivery.
Research groups
Crossley Group
Our main areas of interest include porphyrin chemistry, amino acids and peptides of biological importance, functional materials and molecular electronics.
Hudson Group
Our group is interested in both understanding the underlying physical phenomena related to problems in structural materials chemistry, and improving the computational techniques used to simulate them.
Research_
Molecular Photophysics (MP2) Group
Our research is focussed on the optoelectronic properties of novel nanoscale semiconductor materials for solar energy harvesting, polarisation switching and polariton lasing.
Research_
Neto Group
Our research focuses on the physical chemistry of interfaces, a multi-disciplinary field spanning the traditional disciplines of chemistry, physics, materials science and bio-engineering.
Research_
Polymer Nanostructures Group
Our aim is to produce multifunctional nano-scale materials for applications in catalysis, energy, and nanomedicine.
Research_
Warr Group
Our research is directed at understanding how complex materials arise from competing intermolecular forces, and how this understanding allows us to design new materials.
