Our Research
In general we focus our efforts on the design, synthesis and characterisation of novel nanostructured functional materials for electrocatalytic applications.
Materials and interfaces for electrochemical energy conversion and storage
In general we focus our efforts on the design, synthesis and characterisation of novel nanostructured functional materials for electrocatalytic applications.
Reactions of special interest:
Oxygen reduction reaction (ORR)
Hydrogen oxidation reaction (HOR)
Oxygen evolution reaction (OER)
Hydrogen evolution reaction (HER)
Carbon dioxide electroreduction (CO2RR)
Nitrate reduction
We also substantially extended our research to the design, synthesis and characterization of nanostructured functional materials for electrochemical energy storage.
Systems of special interest:
(Photo)supercapacitors
(Photo)batteries
Redoxflow systems
