Materials Chemistry Electronic Properties of Oxides and Chalcogenides Structure Neutron Scattering

Dr Mark Green left UCL in 2006 and moved to NIST in Gaithersburg, Va., USA. He is no longer taking students.

Our general interests are in solid state/materials chemistry, with emphasis on the following areas:

• Development of novel synthetic techniques such as electrochemical crystallisation, low temperature reduction and hydrothermal synthesis to produce new materials.
• Performing high quality structural and physical property measurements including the use of neutron diffraction, magnetisation and (magneto)resistance techniques.
• Understanding the correlation between structure and properties with the aim of developing new materials with specific uses
