His research group, which has a continuing interest in organophosphorus chemistry (syntheses and mechanisms), has been concerned most recently with the conversion of such salts into ionic liquids and their attachment to surfaces to generate antimicrobial surfaces, where several general topological categories of polycations have been under investigation.
