Multicomponent Mesocrystals for Light-driven Pollutant Degradation and Polymerization (MULTI-LEAP)
Lector: Dr. Sanjay Gopal Ullattil
Institution: Brno University of Technology, CEITEC VUT
Field: Advanced Materials and Nanoscience
About the project
Project MULTI-LEAP focuses on microwave synthesis and the application of multicomponent mesocrystals (MMCs) to address two urgent societal challenges: environmental cleanup and eco-friendly polymer production. Mesocrystal, a highly ordered 3D structure of nanocrystals, offer enhanced charge separation high surface area and porosity, high photochemical stability and fine tunable band gaps, making MMCs exceptionally promising photocatalysts.
Why science?
Science enables me to transform my curiosity into meaningful solutions. It provides me with the means to design materials and technologies that address real social challenges such as cleaner production techniques and environmental sustainability and cleaner production techniques. I can provide innovative solutions that have a long-lasting, beneficial influence through science.
What do I like most about Brno
What I like most about Brno is its atmosphere. The city feels open, international, and peaceful, making it easy to connect with people, ideas, and new opportunities. The close connection between universities, research institutes, and industries and make ambitious research seem truly possible. Also, I like Brno for its rich history and the many places to explore, ranging from cultural landmarks to iconic castles.
