Research Techniques:
Microscopy , Confocal Microscopy, Time resolved fluorescence methods (time domain and frequency domain). In particular I am interested in modeling the photophysical behaviour of complex materials.
Education:
BSc (Hons) Physics Chemistry DIT (1991). MSc Chemistry UCD (1994). PhD Chemistry NUIG 2010.
PhD Thesis:
Title: Time Resolved Spectroscopy of Crude Petroleum Oils.The main aim of my research was to understand the nature of crude oil fluorescence by an indepth analysis using fluorescence lifetime values derived using time-resolved methods.
