Research projects
Carbon nanotubes
Use of carbon nanotubes in electronic circuitry requires that one knows the electrical properties of the nanotubes. Since mixtures of carbon nanotubes that have a range of diameters and properties are grown in all known production methods, it is necessary to separate out the nanotubes with the desired property from all other nanotubes. Ultimate control of these separation techniques will allow us to separate out nanotubes based on their chiral (n,m) numbers.
Tailor-made materials with desired barrier properties from computational modelling
The goal of the project, which is conducted in collaboration with Tetra Pak Packaging Solutions,is to test, develop and implement computational methods to identify polymeric materials with desired barrier properties. This is important since the barrierproperties affect the functionality of various products, e.g., the containers used to store food stuffs and beverages.
