Our scientific interests encompass different branches of soft condensed matter and optical physics, including chiral phenomena, knot theory, laser trapping and imaging techniques, molecular and colloidal self-assembly, fundamental properties of liquid crystals, polymers, organic and nano photovoltaics, nano-structured and other functional materials, as well as their photonic and electro-optic applications. Recently, a number of applied research efforts in our group are directed at solving the global energy and climate change problems
