Welcome to the Briscoe Group website! Our group combine expertise in solution-based synthesis of nanostructured thin films (e.g. nanorods/nanowires, mesoporous films) with the fabrication and testing of a range of sustainable energy devices. We are particularly interested in how multiple functionalities can interact within these devices, for example electrical polarisation in ferroelectric and piezoelectric materials with light absorption and charge separation. If you wish to learn more about our research, get to know our group members, or contact us for any questions about the group, please browse the appropriate sections.
