Main activities:
- Morphological, structural and chemical investigation of nanostructured catalysts for the valorisation of anthropogenic CO2 with the goal of obtaining products with high added value.
- Techniques used most frequently: scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), focused ion beam (FIB), Raman spectroscopy, and in-situ TEM and Raman during the catalytic activity.
Other ongoing activities:
- Device fabrication by FIB micromachining, materials deposition and Electron Beam Lithography.
- Electrical characterization of micro and nanostructured materials with use of micromanipulators in FESEM chamber and by in-situ TEM.
- TEM sample preparation.
