My primary research interests are: (1) the chemistry of surfaces, particularly semiconductor surfaces and (2) laser desorption mass spectrometry. For an overview of my current projects, click on the following topics:

Investigation of The Effects of Dopants on the Surface Chemistry of Porous Silicon

Investigation of Optimum Matrix/Biomolecule Ratios for Matrix Assisted Laser Desorption Ionization (MALDI) Mass Spectrometry
