Overview Research Contact
I am a third-year Ph.D. candidate at the University of Twente (UT) in The Netherlands. My research focus is on the vapor-phase deposition of thin films, mainly charge transport layers, their characterization (e.g. structural, optical, electrical), and application in perovskite solar cells.
