Alex started his PhD degree in Ron Grimm's group in July 2015. His research is currently focused on attaching ammonium terminated organic groups to silicon surfaces to promote adhesion in tandem-junction solar cells. The focus is to maintain silicon's electronic quality and maximize the surface coverage of functional groups.
