Description:

Synthesis of inorganic nanoparticles (hydrothermal synthesis, co-precipitation, sol-gel, thermal decomposition of organometallic compounds, etc.) Functionalization of nanoparticles:

               Coating nanoparticles with inorganic coatings (silica, carbon).

               Grafting organic molecules onto the nanoparticle surfaces.

Synthesis of (multifunctional) nanocomposites:

               Assembling different nanoparticles into nanocomposites .

               Core-shell composite nanoparticles.      

               Dispersing nanoparticles in solid matrixes (polymers, silica, glass).
