Our materials portfolio includes various 1D and 2D semiconductor nanostructure such as nanowires (NWs), nanoribbons, and nanofibers. The nanostructures are normally based on high-mobility semiconducting nanostructures (Si, Ge, ZnO, MoS₂ etc), biocompatible and degradable (chitosan, Ecoflex, silk, cellulose, and carbon-based composites) materials. We employ a variety of processing techniques to tailor the properties required for a specific application. These include top-down nanofabrication, bottom-up vapour phase techniques, wet-chemical and hydrothermal synthesis, electrospinning, and direct 3D printing of functional materials. We focus on understanding the structural evolution (atomic to macro scale), physical and chemical and properties and potential eco-impact through degradation studies.
