Micro and Quantum Systems
The Micro and Quantum Systems Group is currently involved in three research frameworks:
- the European Union project TransFlexTeg , within the H2020 program, for the development of large-area transparent thin films, their thermoelectric applications, and the investigation of thermal transport phenomena;
- the Academy of Finland project OPTOBIO, within the New Energy Program, for the generation of solar fuels via photoelectrochemical water electrolysis by semiconductor and plasmonic materials;
- the Academy of Finland project eVapor, within the ICT 2023 program, for the self-standing harvest of energy from water evaporation into electrical power for the operation of microcontrollers and other low-power devices.
Our research interests also include nanofabrication techniques (ALD and FIB), quantum optics and nanoplasmonic applications.
