“When I had a need to determine the properties of some piezo-polymer film, Dr Markys Cain at Electrosciences Ltd was the first name to spring to mind. He made use of his recently designed ESPY meters to conduct highly accurate and precise piezo-coefficient measurements on film samples that few others can cope with. With his decades of experience with piezo-electric materials, Markys really is one of the world’s leading authorities on this topic. Every interaction with him is a pleasure – and I learn something new every time!”

“Markys has played a key role in many of the hardware and software developments that have been undertaken at XMaS to support research into a wide range of material science applications ranging from piezoelectric materials to batteries and this work has resulted in a number of outstanding publications. Markys is an expert in multifunctional materials and has the ability to drive both fundamental research and technology developments both from the hardware and software applications. It has been a tremendous pleasure to work with Markys over the last few years and I look forward to our continuing collaboration in whatever new and exciting form it may take.”
