Novel approaches for the synthesis and applications of inorganic functional materials

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

The project investigates a range of methods for preparing functional inorganic materials. Mainly focusing on developing and studying the detonation method for the synthesis of metal nanoparticles and sol-gel method utilising biobased precursors. Following successful synthesis, material properties and composition will be studied using a plethora of methods inter alia superconducting quantum interference device magnetometry, X-ray and electron diffraction analysis, scanning and tunnelling electron microscopy, and a range of spectroscopical analysis methods.
