Broadly my research falls into Semiconductor Spectroscopy with the research activity sub-divided into two focus areas: (a) Lattice sites of dopants and defects in conventional semiconductors; primarily metal oxides and III-nitrides and (b) Low-dimensional materials and heterostructures. In the former, I am interested in understanding the correlation between the local environment of dopants in host materials and associated functional properties (e.g., electronic, optical, and magnetic). Much of the work is undertaken with the emission Mössbauer Collaboration at ISOLDE, CERN.
