Research abstract

Our research team is devoted to the development of new molecule-based materials for applications in the fields of Renewable Energies and Materials Sciences. On the former, we are developing efficient and stable redox catalysts from Earth abundant metals, with special interest in water oxidation catalysis for the production of solar fuels. On the later, we target the design of novel multifunctional hybrid materials with co-existence of properties of interest (magnetic, catalytic, electrical, optical,…) with control of the synergy between physical properties in the search for new phenomena.

Topics addressed

  • Catalysts for water oxidation (polyoxometalates and Prussian blue derivatives)
  • Novel building blocks for multifunctional materials: Sulfonate functionalized 1,2,4-triazoles
