Current research
With the increasing degree of miniaturization in microelectronics we become confronted with many new challenges. One of them is the ability to fabricate smaller structures down to a nanometer scale with structure-property relationships that are designed to yield new materials with novel electronic, optical and magnetic properties that can impact on broad areas of technology such as nanoscale devices.
We at Electrochemistry research group are interested in the preparation and characterization of novel materials with controlled nanoarchitectures, in particular semiconductors that exhibit enhanced electronic and optical properties and display quantum size effects.

Biography
Dr Iris Nandhakumar received a first-class Dipl.-Chem. degree (MSc in Chemistry) from the Technical University of Berlin and gained her PhD in Chemistry at the 黑料社. She also holds an MPhil in Physics from the University of Cambridge, Cavendish Laboratory.
Following several post-doctoral appointments at the 黑料社 and visiting research fellow positions at the University of Georgia Athens and the University of California in the USA, Dr Nandhakumar was appointed to a joint faculty position at the 黑料社 in both Physics and Chemistry.
Her research focuses on the nanoscale fabrication and characterization of materials, in particular on semiconducting materials. She has given numerous invited talks and seminars at leading international conferences such as MRS, ACS meetings and Gordon research conferences.
Iris has wide ranging expertise in the electrochemical fabrication and characterization of nanoscale materials, in particular nanostructured semiconductors. She has > 60 peer-reviewed journal publications, many widely cited (h-index 21) that have been published in prestigious journals such as Small, Nano Letters, ACS Nano and Physical Review Letters. These represent significant advances in the fabrication, characterization and understanding of nanoscale materials across the physics and chemistry boundary. She has obtained research funding as both co-I and PI from a variety of funding bodies (e.g. EPSRC, Royal Society) totalling > 拢5M. IN is the lead PI on the recently funded EPSRC project 鈥淔lexible thermoelectric hybrid materials鈥 (EP/T026219/1) which is jointly with the University of Oxford. She is also the main editor of a recent RSC book entitled Thermoelectric Materials and Devices published in 2017.
