I joined the NanoDTC in 2018, after studying chemistry and physics at Durham University. In my PhD project, I used optical scattering microscopy to visualise ion transport and phase transitions in working battery electrodes, in real time. PhD Supervisors: Dr. Akshay Rao – Department of Physics, Prof. Clare Grey – Department of Chemistry.
Research Topic: Nanoscale ion transport in battery materials
