The PhD student will work inside the Interdepartmental Research Center NANO_MATES (Research Centre for NANOMAterials and nanoTEchnology at Salerno University) c/o Department of Physics of the Salerno University. NANO_MATES was born with the idea of generating a research network within the Salerno Campus to enhance the skills acquired in the field of nanosciences and nanotechnologies with a particular focus on sustainability through a strong synergy between researchers from several departments. In particular, the research team mainly composed of Chemical Engineers, is constituted of 2 Full Professors, 3 Associate Professors, 2 PhD student, 3 senior researchers and several PhD/Post Docs responsible of different National and International collaborative projects. The laboratories are equipped with different facilities. For the characterizations, the following are available: Electron Microscopy (SEM, FESEM, TEM) with X-ray (EDX) and electron diffraction analysis (SAED), Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), NMR and Raman spectroscopy, XRD, FT-IR and UV-Visible spectroscopy, thermal analysis (TG-IR), Ion Chromatography, N2 adsorption / desorption, particle size distribution and numerous plants for testing and process analysis.
