Research interests

My research is primarily focused on the development of new organic ionic electrolytes, both liquid and solid, for electrochemical devices. I also have an interest in the development of conducting polymer-based electrocatalysts. My research can be roughly broken down into three areas:
Ionic Liquids: these are a new type of solvent, composed entirely of ions, which are of interest for a variety of synthetic and electrochemical applications. They can be non-volatile and non-flammable, with good ionic conductivity and excellent thermal and electrochemical stability. We are interested in the design and synthesis of new families of ionic liquids and their use in devices such as dye-sensitised solar cells and lithium batteries.
Organic Ionic Plastic Crystals: these are crystalline phases found in many of the same organic salt families but these salts exhibit higher melting points and various forms of disorder and therefore exhibit plastic mechanical properties. This plasticity, and their intrinsic ionic conductivity, makes them of interest as solid state ion conductors.
Thermal energy harvesting: we are investigating a range of different electrolytes - particularly ionic liquids - and redox couples for use in thermoelectrochemical cells. These devices are targetted at harvesting low grade waste heat.
