Autorenporträt

Nicholas Kay spent the first part of his academic career at the Physics department at Lancaster University as a joint PhD student there and at the University of Manchester through the graphene centre for doctoral training. Here he was primarily interested with the nanomechanical and nanoelectromechanical properties of 2D materials, applying scanning probe microscopy but also later surface acoustic waves and optical techniques. After finishing at Lancaster University he took a position at the National Physical Laboratory where his research now focusses on optics. He still remains active in atomic force microscopy, 2D materials and nanomechanics and nanoelectromechanics.
