Integration of nanostructured catalysts in electrochemical systems for green fuels or electricity production

The realization of electrochemical cells for the synthesis of green fuels, such as hydrogen, by water splitting, or ammonia by reaction of nitrogen gas with water or green hydrogen, represents an...

Green Ammonia Cycle: EU H2020-Project TELEGRAM aiming for efficient electrochemical technologies

Ammonia is one of the most important chemicals but its production requires an energy intensive process, responsible for about 1-2% of total CO2 emissions worldwide. Ammonia is...

Plasmonic/catalytic nanostructures for photo-electrochemical Water Splitting

At IMM-CNR Catania we use the plasmonic properties of noble metal nanoparticles (Au or Pt) to improve the photo-electro catalytic activity of n-type 3C-SiC/p-type Si heterojunction solar cells, to...

Photo-electrochemical Water Splitting for Hydrogen production

Splitting water into hydrogen and oxygen is a key component of clean fuel and chemical synthesis from solar energy. One of the approaches to produce Hydrogen at low cost is to couple together...

Processing and characterizations for Silicon Carbide power devices

Owing to its superior electrical properties, such as a wide band gap (3.2 eV) and a high critical electric field (3MV/cm), Silicon Carbide (4H-SiC) is now considered the...

Gallium Nitride processing for high-power and high-frequency devices

Gallium Nitride (GaN) and its related AlxGa1-xN ternary alloys have excellent properties (like a wide band gap, a high critical electric field and a high electron saturation...

SiC based sensor for UV radiation and low energy ions detection for healthcare, environmental, and nuclear physics applications

Monitoring of UV radiation and of its components UV-A and UV-B is of great interest for human healthcare. In past years we realised  visible blinde 4H-SiC UV detectors  based on...
