We are thrilled to announce the publication of three cutting-edge papers from our team: 1️⃣ Dr. David Tilve explores a novel method for producing silicon nanowire (SiNW) dispersions, enabling the creation of macroscopic materials like transparent films and sheets. This scalable technique offers
Our PhD student Nabil Abomailek attended the European Aerosol Conference 2024. The conference is organized by the European Aerosol assembly and was held at the Tampere Hall in Tampere, Finland from 25/08 to 30/08. Nabil presented his last work on the agglomeration of nanowires in the aerosol phase
As we bid farewell to our esteemed colleague and friend, Dr. Afshin Pendashteh, we celebrate the new chapter he embarks on as an editor at Nature Communications. Over the years, Afshin has been an invaluable part of our research group, contributing his extensive expertise in electrochemistry and his
Our PhD student Elena attended the 24th International Congress of Solid State Ionics last week with a poster entitled "100% Silicon Nanowire Paper Anodes for Solid-State Lithium-Ion Batteries". Her contribution was awarded with an International Solid State Ionics (ISSI) prize of 200 GBP.
The XXX International Summer School "Nicolás Cabrera" organized by Carmen Morant and Celia Polop from Autónoma University of Madrid and Nicolás Cabrera Institute will be held this year at "La cristalera" in Miraflores de la Sierra, Madrid, between 2-6 of September, 2024. The topic is on
Our Ph.D. students Ana de Isidro, Shegufta Tahsin, and Clarissa Giudicci attended the NT24 conference in Boston, Massachusetts, U.S.A. from June 23-28, 2024. Our group leader, Dr. Juan José Vilatela, was also invited to give a symposium, and our post-doctoral researcher Dr. David Tilve presented a
Our researchers studied the role of sulphur in controlling CNT morphology and aggregation by synthesising CNTs under a wide range of S/C ratios (0.001 to 5 wt.%) and determining their diameter and length distributions, number concentration and form of aggregation. The CNTs produced range from
On May 13, the Royal Botanic Garden of Madrid opened its doors to our MNG group for a day-long session of brainstorming, learning, and team-building. Maintaining the tradition one more year, we shared challenges and ideas about our research topics.After the session the group also had time to enjoy a
Our researchers demonstrated the good performance of a 100% nanotextile Silicon anode made of a Silicon nanowire (SiNW) network. Read the whole article here.
Our group leader, Juan José Vilatela was invited as a guest in CORDIScovery podcast to talk about "Portable power: batteries of the future". Listen to the whole podcast here.
Our group is part of an international team supported by a prestigious Kavli Exploration Award to reduce global emissions of materials thorugh carbon nanotubes (CNTs). You can see the full article about it here.
On the 29th of September Nabil presented his first yeat assesment titled "From aerosols to aerogels: A study on aggregation and gelation of floating 1D nanoparticles" with a positive result. Elena passed on the 6th of October with her presentation "Mechanistic study of the electrochemical Si-Li
MNG researchers, Juan Pedro Fernández, Anastasiia Mikhalchan and Afshin Pendashteh, received the advanced three-days training by Anton Paar on the SAXS/WAXS laboratory machine for coupling in situ SAXS/WAXS measurements with the operation of the electrochemical cell (Afshin), thermal stage (Juan
