Professor Neil Fox conducts research focused on synthesis evaluation of sustainable materials for energy generation, energy storage, and radiation detection. He is involved in the CVD Diamond Lab within the School of Chemistry at the University of Bristol, where his team studies the growth of diamond films, diamond-like carbon (DLC), and related materials such as zinc oxide using physical chemical vapor deposition techniques. His research includes the use of synthetic diamond and zinc sulfide in applications related to energy conversion, energy storage, and radiation detection. Furthermore, he oversees a laboratory space in the School of Physics dedicated to material processing and surface analysis. The lab is equipped with advanced instrumentation including scanning probe microscopes and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, which supports his research in nano-scaled materials. Professor Fox is also the Principal Investigator for various research projects aimed at enhancing energy technologies, including Gammavoltaics and Hyperuniform Disordered Metasurfaces. He holds a B.Sc. from the University of London, an M.Sc. from the University of St. Andrews, and a Ph.D. from the University of Bristol.
