JMC is a semiconductor physicist by background, although for a number of years he has worked on the development of the technology and applicable science of the terahertz (THz) frequency range. This has involved the realisation of new types of components and systems, together with the exploitation of THz radiation in such areas as: medical imaging, biology, security and non-destructive testing.

He has also led a number of EU programmes in this field. He is one of the founder members of the Durham Biophysical Sciences Institute. He has authored more than 250 papers, given many invited talks and is a Fellow of the Institute of Physics.
