General Research Interests
Nanophases under solid constraint. Effect of size, shape and orientation on properties of materials. Nanocrystalline anisotropy. Scale-dependence of structural phase transformations in solids. Orientation relationships, crystallographic symmetry, and the role of defects in precipitation reactions and thin film growth. Electron-optical characterization of morphology and interface structure by conventional, in-situ, high resolution and diffraction techniques and correlation with property measurements and computer image simulations.
