Biography

Professor Scanlon is an electrochemist and a leader in the field of  electrochemistry at polarised immiscible liquid|liquid or “soft” interfaces. In 2016, he was awarded a European Research Council (ERC) Starting Grant, allowing him to develop a world-class laboratory to study polarised liquid|liquid interfaces for energy conversion and storage applications. Using polarised liquid|liquid interfaces, Professor Scanlon has pioneered new approaches to:
  • electrocatalysis of energy related reactions, such as oxygen reduction, hydrogen evolution, and water oxidation,
  • electrosynthesis of conducting polymer thin films and their nanocomposites,
  • bioelectrochemistry of a model enzyme (Cytochrome c),
  • interfacial self-assembly of porphyrin molecules and  metallic nanoparticles, and
  • electroanalytical chemistry of non-redox active molecules.
Details of Professor Scanlon's research and group can be found at the Scanlon Electrochemistry Laboratory website (https://www.scanlonelectrochemlab.com/).

Research Interests

My primary mission is to understand the fundamental behaviour of polarised liquid|liquid interfaces and harness their untapped potential for applications related to energy conversion and storage, advanced functional materials development, sensor technology and the creation of bio-mimetic molecular machines.

Teaching Interests

I teach on the following modules:
1st year (CH4051 Introduction to Applied Chemistry and Biochemistry),
2nd year (CH4004 Physical Chemistry 3 and CH4354 Analytical Chemistry for the Environment), and
3rd year (CH4025 Photochemistry).
I mentor up to 5 final year undergraduate projects, for students from the Pharmaceutical and Industrial Chemistry, Biochemistry and Environmental Science BSc. degree programs at the University of Limerick.
Also, I regularly mentor visiting Masters student projects from the MSc. Analytical Chemistry program at University College Cork (UCC).
