Our main focus is applying molecular self-assembly techniques to prepare nanomaterials. The research areas are divided into two main aspects:

Organometallic Molecular Wires: This includes the synthesis, spectroscopic characterization, and study of the heterogeneous electrochemical properties of redox-active poly(ferrocenylacetylene) molecular wires forming self-assembled monolayers on gold films.

Development of Metal Inks and Post-Processing Techniques: We work on preparing nanoparticle suspensions and metal-organic solutions for use in micro-interconnects and junctions. Using inkjet printing, we directly deposit complex circuit patterns on various substrates, followed by thermal processing to achieve microstructure formation. This is accompanied by material analysis, including conductivity measurements.

Our methodology involves utilizing various instruments (NMR, X-ray, TEM, SEM, electrochemical techniques) to study and control the physical phenomena occurring at nanomaterial surfaces.
