Advanced DNA imaging: improving spatial resolution and contrast through photoswitching (ImaginDNA)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2013, Date de fin: 31 janv. 2017,
Fluorescence microscopy is one of the most convenient and widespread tools used in the life sciences. An important challenge, however, is to improve its spatial resolution, which is limited to about 200 nm. Recent “super-resolution” techniques such as photoactivation-localization microscopy (PALM) can provide images with a spatial resolution of tens of nm. Most studies performed with these techniq ...

Polymer - Carbon Nanotubes Active Systems for Photovoltaics (POCAONTAS)
Date du début: 1 nov. 2012, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2016,
Organic solar cells (OSC) feature several advantages over “classical” silicon solar cells: low cost, energy effective production, low weight and semi-transparency. This makes them apt for novel applications like, building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV) with high market potential. However, both the efficiency and the long-term stability must be enhanced for OSCs to become profitable. POCAONTAS wil ...

Nanocrystalline Permanent Magnets Based on Hybrid Metal-Ferrites (NANOPYME)
Date du début: 1 déc. 2012, Date de fin: 30 nov. 2015,
This project addresses the design and development of permanent magnets without rare earths but consisting on hybrid nanostructures based on metals and metal ferrite oxides. The metallic nanostructures offers high magnetization values while the ferrite oxide one provides high anisotropy. We intend to design and process novel permanent magnets based on traditional hard ferrites and additional new m ...

Revolutionizing Understanding of Organic Solar Cell Degradation to Design Novel Stable Materials (SolarRevolution)
Date du début: 6 mai 2013, Date de fin: 5 mai 2015,
SolarRevolution aims to revolutionise the understanding of bulk-heterojunction organic solar cell (OSC) degradation by developing a detailed knowledge of the chemical and physical processes involved. This knowledge will be applied to the rational design of novel materials to give OSCs 20-year lifetimes and allow mass-market uptake of this low-cost, low-energy-footprint, transparent, lightweight an ...

Fabrication and development of nanotoxicology-test bacterial arrays for the investigation of antibiotics against multi drug-resistant bacteria (NANOTESTS)
Date du début: 1 mars 2012, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2015,
"Bacterial resistance to antibiotics is one of medicine's most vexing challenges. Most antibiotics initially work really well, killing more than 99.9% of microbes they target. But through mutation and the selection pressure exerted by the antibiotic, a few inevitably manage to survive, and flourish as antibiotic-resistant strains. Hence, new strategies to design antibiotic to combat drug-resistant ...

Protein design to generate bio-functional nanostructures (Bionanotools)
Date du début: 1 juil. 2010, Date de fin: 30 juin 2014,
The main objective of my research project is to understand how the structure and function of proteins are defined by their sequence and to apply learned rules to design new protein-based nanotools. In particular, I will focus on a type of proteins called tetratricopeptide repeats (TPR). They present a simple modular structure, where a small structural unit is repeated in tandem. Overall TPR domain ...

DOTUBE: Interactions between semiconductor nanoparticles and carbon nanotubes (DOTUBE)
Date du début: 1 juil. 2009, Date de fin: 30 juin 2012,
"Many applications in Nanotechnology require the complete understanding of the material`s surface in order to control further interactions against specific targets. The goal of the proposal is to understand the interaction between CdSe nanoparticles and carbon nanotubes (or graphene) as well as the chemical reactivity of such composites. We will investigate the ligand environment of the CdSe nanop ...
