Dr Marc Etherington

Assistant Professor

Department: Mathematics, Physics and Electrical Engineering

Biography

My name is Marc Etherington and I am currently an Assistant Professor at ϲ (and Junior Research Fellow at Hatfield College, Durham University) leading a group researching the photophysical and functional properties of organic semiconductors. I am also an academic visitor at Durham University, working with  and continuing our joint work and projects on novel materials that exhibit thermally activated delayed fluorescence.

Before my VCSF, I worked in the OEM group at Durham University from March 2015 as a research associate on two different projects (PHEBE and HyperOLED).

I'm originally from Stockton-on-Tees and as such, I am local to the area. I did my undergraduate MPhys degree at Grey College, Durham University from 2007-2011. This included a fourth-year project under the supervision of .

After graduating in 2011 I went up to Cambridge to undertake my PhD in Physics at Clare College under the supervision of . The title of my thesis was 'Magnetic field effects on the triplet states in organic semiconductor devices'.

Alongside my membership of Hatfield College SCR I am also a member of the SCRs at University College and Grey College.
