If it were easy, someone would have done it already.
Research Interest
My research focuses on the interaction of ions and electrons with solid surfaces. I am particularly interested in inelastic processes, correlated systems, 2D and quantum materials. Together with my team, I develop novel experimental methods in the spectroscopy of scattered particles. My work ranges from basic research to applied research in areas such as nuclear fusion, semiconductor technology and EUV lithography.
