This project explores phonon transport through nanoscale structures.

Roughly two thirds of all energy we use is wasted as heat. Thermoelectric power generation can help solve this energy crisis. This project studies novel nanomaterials that can efficiently harvest this heat and inject it back into our power supply. Our recent PE activities include:

Cheltenham Science Festival Discover Zone 2019

4 - 9 June 2019, Imperial Square, Cheltenham

British Science Festival (Family Day)

14 Sept. 2019, University of Warwick.
