Experimental physicist within the interdisciplinary area of Surface Science. Research interests are towards examination of the fundamental energy and charge transfer between substrate and the adsorbed layer as result of adsorption and during electron, ion and photon irradiation. Specifically, experimental evaluation of the mechanisms of optical excitations in nanoparticle- and nanocavity arrays and the related physical and chemical processes at their interfaces. Physics and chemistry of ice and carbon materials are of special interest. Teaching undergraduate and graduate courses. Supervision and administration of research.
