Teddington, England, United Kingdom

Industrial and Environmental Gas Metrology Lead in the Gas Metrology group at the NPL. Technical lead for a team of 12 scientists producing research and primary reference materials.Direct line management of 4 scientists

Teddington, London

Coordinator of the Stable Isotope Metrology to Enable Climate Action and Regulation (STELLAR) project.STELLAR is a EURAMET funded project with 14 partners (2.3 M€). Global warming is one of the greatest risks to society worldwide. To prevent stark changes to the Earth’s climate, emissions of the major contributing greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide.

Environmental and industrial gas metrology, primarily involving research around hydrogen purity for energy applications and investigating reference standards for greenhouse gases which provide traceability for global atmospheric air quality monitoring.

Teddington

My research focused on developing graphene as a metrological standard, and metrology for graphene; characterisation of graphene for electronic devices including sensors, understanding the effect of graphene uniformity, substrate and modification on electronic properties and developing new methods to measure the properties of graphene. My current research.

Linkoping, Sweden

Project leader of graphene chemical sensor research. I led the graphene sensor research team and pioneered using controlled environment SKPM techniques for chemical sensor characterisation. Responsible for administration, teaching and examination of two sensor science courses at Masters level and supervision of research students.During my assistant.

Linkoping, Sweden

Research focusing on characterization of epitaxially grown graphene on SiC and design, fabrication and testing of graphene, metal oxide, SiC FET chemical sensors. Lecturing and lab supervision of courses in chemical sensor science at Masters level. Supervision of two Masters students

Linkoping, Sweden

Projects included testing the response of metal oxide chemical sensor devices for high temperature and high humidity environments and the design, fabrication and testing of capacitive biosensors with an incorporated gate electrode.

London, United Kingdom

Supervisor; Milo Shaffer (Imperial), co-supervisors; Anita Lloyd Spetz (LiU), John Shaw (Tyco), Judith Cerda Belmonte (Imperial).Thesis title Carbon nanotubes as fire gas sensors. Partly funded by Tyco Fire and Security UK Ltd. The project involved building and testing of a reactor to grow carbon nanotubes and patterned CNT growth on electrodes by large.

Linkoping, Sweden

Project title: Understanding the response of carbon nanotube sensors towards gases and vapours. This was a Marie Curie funded placement during my Ph.D. in Linkoping. I tested the sensor devices I had produced during my PhD.
