You are cordially invited to the "Center for solid state physics and new materials" seminar, which will be held on Wednesday, June 21th 2023 at 13:00, in the library reading room “Dr Dragan Popović" of the Institute of Physics Belgrade.

The talk entitled: "Novel engineered nanostructured materials for tailored applications"

will be given by Prof. dr. Nandakumar Kalarikkal, Senior Professor (Former Director & Chair) School of Pure and Applied Physics, Mahatma Gandhi University, Kottayam, Kerala, India.

Abstract:

Nanoscience and Nanotechnology research has made significant contributions addressing issues related to energy, water, food and health security. Hybrid nanostructures are found to be much more promising as we can integrate the properties of the constituents and achieve synergetic effects. One of the most promising aspects of the emergent field of nanostructuration is the ability to generate a variety of different morphologies with structural definition on the nanometric scale. The properties and behaviours of the nanostructured materials depend on both, the nature of its molecular constituents and their precise spatial positioning.  In this talk, the results of our recent works on 2D hybrid materials for energy applications, biodegradable electrospun polymer nanocomposite membranes as skin substitutes with microbial barrier and wound healing properties, laser-nanostructured material interactions, polymer nanocomposites for EMI shielding & Energy harvesting applications, hybrid metal oxide nanosystems for water purification along with recent computational studies and novel nanomultiferroics will be discussed.
