Materials science for chemical sensing and renewable energy

Materials science for chemical sensing and renewable energy

2^nd International Conference on Materials Science and Materials Chemistry
March 20-21, 2019 | London, UK

Magnus Willander

Linkoping University, Sweden

Abstract:

Converting mechanical energy to electrical energy will be discussed from piezoelectric and triboelectric point of view. I will talk on our material synthesis as well as our devices and their applications we have developed. In these areas a strong progress has been going on for 5 to 10 years mainly because development of different nanomaterials. A second topic is electrochemical and photochemical creation of hydrogen and hydrogen peroxide as future energy fuels. Finally, chemical sensors based on different nanomaterials and substrates is discussed.
