CHEMICAL AND STRUCTURAL CHARACTERIZATION OF NANOMATERIALS  image002

Description

We prepare and characterize new materials such as metal nanoparticles, Quantum dots and graphene derivatives in solution and deposited onto solids.

Main Equipments

Langmuir-­Blodgett (KSV2000 System 2) To Fabricate and characterize monomolecular films with precise control of lateral packing density. image004
Brewster Angle Microscopy (Optrel BAM 3000) Visualization of Langmuir monolayers or adsorbate films at the air-­‐water interface. image006
Kelvin probe (KSV SPOT1) It allows determining Composition, Dissociation degree, Orientation and Interaction in Langmuir monolayers image008
Quartz Crystal Microbalance (Q-­sense E1) Mass changes and interactions occurring at surfaces. Surface rheology of surface bound materials. image010
