Fabricating Functional Materials from Nanomaterial Building Blocks

Abstract: I am focused on the overall vision of controlling, understanding and directing the properties of materials at the atomic level. This enables the intelligent design and fabrication of materials with properties that are tailored to specific applications. My multi-disciplinary approach to real world problems, combines the ability to design and make nanomaterials for targeted application with the advanced spectroscopic tools to fully understand how these materials function. This approach has been exploited to generate functional nanomaterials in a number of areas including; redox flow batteries [1]; multifunctional 1D metal nanowire arrays for gas sensing [2] and nanoparticle catalysts [3]. At the University of Leeds, I have established an industrially-facing research group, applying this unique approach to industrial challenges, working in partnership with a number of companies in a wide variety of areas including; heterogeneous catalyst characterisation and development, continuous nanoparticle synthesis, and automated and high throughput pharmaceutical and agrochemical manufacturing. By harnessing continuous flow platforms and automation it is possible to utilise performance directed optimisation to refine processes with unprecedented levels of efficiency, reducing development time and facilitating scale-up. Specifically, from a nanomaterials perspective, this relates to the fabrication and use of nanoparticle systems but this approach can be exploited in other areas of chemistry, such as pharmaceutical process development. This talk will outline some of the recent advancements made within the group both in terms of fabrication methodologies and application of nanomaterial systems.
