My primary research interests are in Novel Materials and Materials for Energy Applications. My research focuses on two-dimensional van der Waals materials, heterostructures, and nanostructures for energy conversion and information processing. To investigate their electronic and optoelectronic properties, we develop and use novel electron microscopy and nanometer-resolved electron-excited spectroscopy techniques.
