Surfaces and interfaces are important in many emerging and existing scientific fields and technologies. The research in the Friend group is motivated by an interest in several technologies, including heterogeneous catalysis, nanostructure growth, environmental chemistry, laser-assisted materials processing, and chemical sensor technology.
