NANO-PHYSICS GROUP

On the first years of the nanotechnology "fever", nanoparticles where synthesized with very little control of size, shape, composition and crystalline structure. Now, it is clear that if real applications are to be developed, much higher synthesis control is required. In order to address this challenge and be able to make an impact in our daily life, a new synthesis protocol called Pulsed Laser Ablation in Liquids is used.

​

My goal is to create and develop new nano/quantum materials with well-defined crystalline structure and physico-chemical properties that cannot be achieved by using traditional wet-chemistry techniques.  

​

This unique approach enhances the fundamental understanding of nanomaterials and paves the way for unparalleled innovations. The applications are expected in the following fields:

- physics / engineering (quantum materials),

- chemistry (nano-alloys/semiconductors),

- biology / medicine (nano-drugs).
