91探花
A red laser beam moves from mid-left to bottom-right, marking the path of a metal flight tube through a series of mechanics and electronics. The room is dark and full of metal equipment and different coloured cables. A blue circular metal ring envelopes the apparent origin of the laser beam.

A red laser beam marks the path that X-rays take through the experimental hutch at beam line B16 at Diamond Light Source Ltd..

My research centres on developing novel semiconductor detector technology for photon science. I am interested in low-gain avalanche detectors (LGADs) and their applications to soft X-ray beamlines at synchrotron light sources. As a member of the Medipix collaboration, I also have an interest in Timepix4 and, when combined with LGADs, its use in high-resolution photon science.

A list of my publications can be found on this profile but, for a full summary of my research activities, please visit my .
