Physical-chemistry at the cross-road of advanced oxide materials

摘要

Oxide-based materials have been largely studied for their catalytic, electronic or adsorbent properties. Since the early '60s, when oxides and metals dispersed on oxides used for catalysis and sensing were mostly studied, the interest of the scientific community has been extended to other technological applications such as abatement of pollutants, energy production, biotechnology and nanomedicine.
