Stephen Skinner is a Reader in Materials Chemistry in the Department of Materials at Imperial College London with research interests in new materials for energy generation/storage technologies. He is primarily interested in the development of materials for solid oxide fuel cells and in understanding their transport properties, utilising a combination of diffraction and spectroscopic techniques. In-situ structural and electrical characterisation of oxides and the determination of the oxygen transport kinetics are key areas of interest. He is a member of the ISIS neutron source facility access panel, Diamond I20 working group and the Materials Chemistry Division Council of the RSC.
