Thesis Project: Interfacial Growth of DNA-Programmable Nanoparticle Superlattices My research efforts are focused on building hierarchical materials with plasmonic and photonic active nanoparticle building blocks. My experimental activities are aimed at advancing the fields of photonics and nanoplasmonics by rationally designing architecturally sophiscated materials and implementing such structures for on-chip technologies.
