Research Summary
My prime research interests are centred around understanding and controlling the physics of nano and atomic scale processes that occur at surfaces. This includes fundamental research into the behaviour of atoms and molecules at surfaces and the development and deployment of new nanolithographic techniques, strongly impacting on the fabrication of nanoscale electronic devices and atomic-scale components for quantum computers
