Our lab aims at researching novel ways of generating micro/nano-scopic structures and understanding how these structures could be further manipulated. We intend to get better understanding of the underlying scientific principles that govern these processes while developing these techniques for envisioned useful applications.

We are fascinated by scientific questions that are at the interface between chemistry, physics and material science. We develop novel methods for bottom-up directed assembly by utilizing optical and acoustic fields. These fields dictate the spatial distribution of materials, their mesoscopic structure and could allow formation of new hybrid materials. 
A key feature of this approach is its modularity, as it could be implemented on various material systems. Due to the flexibility in material choice, this innovative approach will open the door to new ways to act upon materials, with envisioned applications for electronics, photonics and drug delivery systems.
