The research projects of the Nanostructure’s team are generally focused on applied problems that are, for a majority, related to properties (structural and/or electronic) of materials. We address these problems with a pragmatic approach supported by rigorous molecular simulation methods with a strong emphasize on the visual representation of the processes studied.

Organic/metal, organic/organic interfaces

Spin-charge patterning on 2D materials with molecular self-assembling

Influence of a metal substrate on the magnetic coupling in 2D networks

Adsorption of large molecular assemblies on metallic and semiconducting surfaces 

Reactivity and stability of organic and metal-organic systems for water hydrolysis

Magnetic and Electronic properties of 1D-2D organic polymers

Electrochemical and physical properties of GS electrode in Li-S battery technology

Interaction of organics with metallic clusters and surfaces

Capture and methanation of CO2 by metal/MOF dual-functional materials
