Current research

With the increasing degree of miniaturization in microelectronics we become confronted with many new challenges. One of them is the ability to fabricate smaller structures down to a nanometer scale with structure-property relationships that are designed to yield new materials with novel electronic, optical and magnetic properties that can impact on broad areas of technology such as nanoscale devices.

We at Electrochemistry research group are interested in the preparation and characterization of novel materials with controlled nanoarchitectures, in particular semiconductors that exhibit enhanced electronic and optical properties and display quantum size effects.
