Emergent behaviors of self-organized, soft matter systems
Lecturer: Emmanouela Filippidi
Thursday 12 June 2025 at 14:00
While reductionism, which operates on the idea that to understand the behavior of a complex system we need to break it down to its constituent parts and understand the physics that governs each of the parts, is an extremely powerful and necessary app [...]Designing Solid Polymer Electrolytes for Lithium, Beyond Lithium, and a Sustainable Future
Lecturer: Emmanouil Glynos
Friday 30 May 2025 at 14:00
As the demand for high-performance, sustainable energy storage systems intensifies, lithium-based battery technologies remain at the forefront due to their high energy density and technological maturity. However, to meet future challenges in safety, [...]Exploring 2D materials with theory and simulation
Lecturer: Georgios Kopidakis
Thursday 29 May 2025 at 12:00
Two-dimensional (2D) materials of atomic thickness exhibit interesting physics and show great promise in electronics, optoelectronics, quantum technologies, catalysis, clean energy and environment applications. Beyond graphene, many 2D materials with [...]Biomaterials for Precision Medicine
Lecturer: Dr. Edmondo Battista
Thursday 15 May 2025 at 14:00
The talk will explore biomaterials in precision healthcare, highlighting two key areas: the use of functionalized particles—such as hydrogels and microgels—for multiplexed detection of biological targets in in-vitro diagnostics, and the design of [...]Η Ιστορία των Επιστημών στην Επικοινωνία της Επιστήμης
Lecturer: Dr. Emmanouil Kartsonakis
Friday 04 April 2025 at 14:00
H Επικοινωνία της Επιστήμης στοχεύει να αναδείξει τις διαδρομές μέσα από τις οποίες συγκροτούνται οι επιστήμες και η τεχνολογία. Να προσ [...]Advanced Functional Materials as Conductometric Gas Sensors
Lecturer: Emmanouil Gagaoudakis
Friday 24 January 2025 at 14:00
Gas sensors are of great importance in a wide variety of sectors, such as medical, food safety/smart packaging, energy (flammable/explosive gases) as well as environment (monitoring of air quality). Thus, nitric oxide (NO), carbon dioxide (CO2), hydr [...]Optical Spectroscopy and Twistronics: Engineering Novel States in Atomically Thin Materials
Lecturer: Ioannis Paradeisanos
Friday 20 December 2024 at 14:00
Two-dimensional (2D) materials, such as graphene and monolayers of transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), exhibit exceptional light-matter interactions due to their reduced dimensionality and unique crystal symmetries. While only a few dozen layere [...]Serendipity versus determinism – ‘Curiosity-driven’ research closing an eye to applications: the case of nanomaterials
Lecturer: Stefanos Mourdikoudis
Friday 13 December 2024 at 14:00
Στην ομιλία αυτή, ο κ. Μουρδικούδης θα παρουσιάσει αρχικά ένα μέρος του ερευνητικού έργου που έχει επιτελέσει ως τώρα. Αυτό σχετίζεται κυ [...]Multiscale Crystal Lattice Chemistry for Unusual Bulk Inorganic Solids
Lecturer: In Chung
Monday 21 October 2024 at 16:30
Inorganic solids inevitably involve a certain level of either intrinsic or extrinsic crystal imperfections, which are embedded in the bulk crystal matrix. They can be atomic-level point defects generated by incorporating vacancies and atoms for dopin [...]Stability and Electrical Performance Improvement of Transparent p-Type CuI for Large Area Electronics
Lecturer: Myung-Gil Kim
Monday 21 October 2024 at 16:00
The transparent electronic materials have been essential electronic components in large area electronics, such as display, thin-film solar cell, and wearable electronics. Especially the a-IGZO and ITO have been successfully implemented as thin-film t [...]
