Sirringhaus Lab

 

Biography

Dion is a materials scientist specialising in electronic materials and devices. Having previously worked on epitaxial oxide thin films, he ‘went organic’ as he got fascinated by the chemical tunability of organic and hybrid organic-inorganic materials, and the wealth of electrical properties that could be induced by such thoughtful chemistry. Collaborating with chemists from the University of Tokyo, Dion is currently studying the charge transport and thermoelectric properties of coordination nanosheets, an emerging class of two-dimensional metal-organic frameworks exhibiting curious electronic properties. He enjoys wandering around Cambridge (with high probability density of being found around River Cam and the local kebab shops), communicating science, and tutoring undergraduates in supervisions.

Nernst Effect Paper Published in Nature Communications

11 February 2025

Our paper Observation of Anomalously Large Nernst Effects in Conducting Polymers has now been published in Nature Communications ! While the Nernst effect is well-documented in inorganic semiconductors and metals, this phenomenon is typically negligible in polymers with lower structural order and an inherently low mobility...
