Department of Nanotechnology (ZN)

Technical expertise with regard to the scope of the project:
Dep. of Nanotechnology contributes to chemical expertise of explored biosensors. After each step of synthesis and functionalization of graphene oxide/graphene with biosensing materials structural and optical analysis is carried out. After each biosensing measurements, chemical characterization of the utilized biosensor is also performed.

Equipment:
The group has access to different characterisation facilities such as electron-microscopes (transmission- and scanning electron microscopes), atomic force microscope (AFM), Raman spectroscopy (different wavelengths available: 457, 514, 785, 830), FT-IR spectroscopy, UV-vis spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS).
