PROJEKTARBEIT: Development of ceramic-based macroporous nanomaterials

About the project

The project will be developed within the framework of the Area C of the DFG-funded Collaborative Research Center SFB 986, check https://www.tuhh.de/sfb986 for details. The application focus is on photonic materials, however such ceramic-based macroporous structures can be applied in several other fields, including catalysis, sensing, electrodes, wetting and filtration.

TASKS

Fabrication and characterization of photonic materials including:

1. Self-assembly process
2. Atomic layer deposition process
3. Heat treatment cycles
4. Characterization
   check http://bit.do/projectworksfb for an example
