R1 Research Group

We are located in the department of Chemistry at St Francis Xavier University.

The lab was established in July 2019, and has been growing since! Our research has two main directions: the preparation of nano materials by pulsed laser ablation in liquids and the investigation of the electrocatalytic properties of these materials. This implies nanosecond laser, scanning electron microscope, potentiostat, gas and ion chromatography, as well as the occasional use of a 3D printer!
