Welcome to the Velev Lab at NC State!!
Velev Research Group
Our research is focused on fundamental and exploratory projects in colloids, microfluidics and nanoscience. The major thrust is the controlled on-chip assembly of colloidal particles into advanced materials and microscopic functional structures. Our research could underlie future technologies for fabrication of chemical and biological sensors, photonic devices, microscale materials synthesis, bioelectronic interfacing, and rapid fabrication of nanostructured coatings and materials.
