Description of Research Interests
In the past, I have been the Project Co-ordinator and the Principal Investigator of two large projects on Liquid Crystals, Science Programme (1990-93) and the Human Capital and mobility programme (1994-97). Both of these projects were approved by the Science/Physics Committee of the EU. Under the 5th programme, I am a partner in two projects (i) Liquid Crystalline dendrimers and (ii) Synclinic and Anticlinc Liquid Crystals. I was granted a two year project by the ACS on glass science in 1999. In 2000, I was awarded a basic research grant to work o the dynamic pyroelectric effect, strategic project on low k, and 2 Science Foundation of Ireland grants. Have been awarded 2 major projects of ~1.35 M Euro by the Science Foundation of Ireland, under one of which Professor A. Fukuda is appointed for one year as a SFI Research Professor.
