Research Interests:
Materials synthesis-by-design via imprinting
A progressive trend in materials research, driven in part by the continuing miniaturization of technology, has been towards the synthesis of materials at a resolution complementary to an individual molecule of interest. Our research philosophy deals with the rational design of materials on this length scale for applications in adsorption, catalysis, nucleation and chemical sensing. Our objective is to synthesize amorphous materials that possess a precise functional group arrangement within a pore whose size and shape is controlled over the length scale of several Ångstroms to nanometers.
