Nanomaterials characterization as a tool to high value-added products (original) (raw)

Abstract

Novel nanomaterials and new nanotechnology applications are cornerstones of innovative high value-added products in several industrial fields. From a technological point a view, there is a strong demand for techniques to fabricate and measure the properties of these nanomaterials and related devices. In parallel, at a more fundamental level, a higher comprehension of the materials physical properties at the nanoscale level is needed. Properties of these novel materials depend on a myriad of parameters. As an example optical properties will depend on such as feature size, shape, surface characteristics, interaction with the surrounding environment, etc. Characterization of nanomaterials employs expensive high-tech equipment combined with multidisciplinary teams of experts that cannot usually be accommodated in a Small to Medium-sized Enterprise budget. This talk will address the advantages for the industry, mainly SMEs to partnership with established academic laboratories in order to...
