RESEARCH ACTIVITY

His interests are in the synthesis of composite inorganic nanomaterials based on engineered inorganic nanostructures, with controlled crystalline phase and morphology. Currently, his research is focused on 2-dimensional nanomaterials for environmental applications, including water splitting and water purification through electro-oxidation and (photo-)degradation of contaminants.
