Currently my research focuses mainly on optical thin films for microcavity based OLEDs, optically active materials for solar cell applications, and photoresponsive smart materials.
I'm acting as a teacher tutor for materials engineering students in both BSc and MSc level. You can ask me about anything related to Materials engingeerin courses and I will try to get you the answer. Below are the courses I'm more or less responsible in some way.
MTEK0018 Internship, Materials Engineering, 2-5 ECTS
