The research projects of the Nanostructure’s team are generally focused on applied problems that are, for a majority, related to properties (structural and/or electronic) of materials. We address these problems with a pragmatic approach supported by rigorous molecular simulation methods with a strong emphasize on the visual representation of the processes studied.
Organic/metal, organic/organic interfaces
★ Spin-charge patterning on 2D materials with molecular self-assembling
★ Influence of a metal substrate on the magnetic coupling in 2D networks
★ Adsorption of large molecular assemblies on metallic and semiconducting surfaces
★ Reactivity and stability of organic and metal-organic systems for water hydrolysis
★ Magnetic and Electronic properties of 1D-2D organic polymers
★ Electrochemical and physical properties of GS electrode in Li-S battery technology
★ Interaction of organics with metallic clusters and surfaces
★ Capture and methanation of CO2 by metal/MOF dual-functional materials
