Welcome, LNCE opens its doors at EPFL Valais

Our research focuses on developing novel synthetic routes to tailor-make multifunctional hybrid materials, based on atomically defined colloidal nanocrystals.
LNCE develops synthetic approaches to tailor-make novel nanomaterial platforms with the aim of advancing the knowledge in energy research. To achieve control on composition, morphology and interfaces, we use colloidal chemistry, which is one of the most powerful solution-based bottom-up approaches to nanomaterials. To verify mechanistic hypothesis and to assess the relevant materials properties that we are seeking for, we implement our materials into proof-of-concept devices.
