My research is focused on producing and studying physical and chemical characteristics of zinc compounds such as zinc layered hydroxide salts (ZLHS) for photonic and gas sensing applications. I use low cost methods such as template-less and surfactant-free aqueous chemical growth (ACG) to synthesize zinc compounds.
