Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Organic chemistry
  • Redox
  • Oxygen

His primary scientific interests are in Inorganic chemistry, Nanotechnology, Electrochemistry, Colloidal gold and Redox. He combines subjects such as Glassy carbon, Cyclic voltammetry, Electrolyte, Hydrogen peroxide and Mercury with his study of Inorganic chemistry. In general Nanotechnology study, his work on Nanoparticle often relates to the realm of Electrical resistivity and conductivity, thereby connecting several areas of interest.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Aqueous solution and Analytical chemistry. His Colloidal gold study incorporates themes from Thiol, Monolayer, Self-assembly, Toluene and Combinatorial chemistry. In his study, Transmission electron microscopy is inextricably linked to Tetraoctylammonium bromide, which falls within the broad field of Thiol.

His most cited work include:

  • Synthesis of thiol-derivatised gold nanoparticles in a two-phase liquid-liquid system (4893 citations)
