Introduction

The key to successful development of new materials lies in the development of rational design strategies. This can only be achieved through an understanding of fundamental interactions at the molecular level. Research in the group is focused in two areas: the design, synthesis and characterization of materials that are tuned or tunable for specific purposes, and the development of methods for the characterization of materials of ever-increasing complexity. The Group also manages a wide range of major and minor equipment for materials characterization and molecular structure determination for the Institute.
