Furthermore, he is also involved in a variety of other smaller materials characterization, analytical and litigation projects.

As a graduate student and post doctoral, Dr Iordanidis worked in the synthesis, physicochemical and structural characterization of different classes of materials that included semiconducting bismuth chalcogenides, molecular compounds, carboxylate-catecholate multimetallic clusters and other porous and extended inorganic and organic solids.

Dr. Iordanidis has also become experienced with a variety of X-ray [Powder X-ray Diffraction, Single Crystal X-Ray Diffraction, X-ray Fluorescence, spectroscopic [Fourier Transform Infra-Red Spectroscopy, Diffuse Reflectance Ultraviolet-Visible (UV-Vis) Near-IR, Fourier Transform Raman Spectroscopy], thermal [Differential Thermal Analysis, Differential Scanning Calorimetry, Thermal Gravimetric Analysis], microscopy [Scanning Electron Microscopy, Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy, Transmission Electron Microscopy] and other material characterization techniques.

He is a member of American Chemical Society and Material Research Society.

He has a patent: Alkali metal chalcogenides of bismuth alone or with antimony and thermoelectric devices using them, in U.S. 2000 (U.S. Patent No. 6,013,204).

He has published in peer-reviewed literature.
