My research focuses on diamond synthesis at low temperatures, simulation and development of novel microwave plasma CVD systems, anduse of diamond for medical applications such as prosthesis and biosensing. I am also interested in preventing erosion on wind turbine blades using nanocrystalline diamond coating. Lab website .
