My interests include the use of substance properties for photopolymerization applied in 3D printing. I focus on studying the properties of fullerenes as well as the photoinitiating and photocatalytic properties of carbon dots. I conduct measurements using, among others, a spectrophotometer (absorbance and photolysis measurements) and a spectrofluorometer (emission and excitation measurements).
