Areas of Interest

Physics of solid surfaces. We are particularly interested in pushing the spectroscopic capabilities of the scanning tunneling microscope for versatile nanomaterials characterization.

Current research topics include spin transport in organic films, structure, morphology, and electronic properties at organic semiconductor interfaces, and the growth and electronic characterization of nanoporous metal-ligand surface networks.
