Areas of Interest
My research
interests mainly lie in the synthesis of new and unique materials with the
sol-gel method. The sol-gel method has gained tremendous attention in the
last 15 years. In the last two years alone,over 2000 scientific articles
were published on this subject. Although my research experience has mostly
been in electrical and electrochemical materials, I also have a strong
back-ground in polymer science, ceramics, and inorganicchemistry. Future
projects that I am interested in include electronically conducting
polymers, acousticallyinsulating aerogels, organic/inorganic hybrid
materials,and the synthesis of biomaterials through the sol-gel method |
