Nanoscopy on Low Dimensional Materials (NLDM)

The research interest of the Nanoscopy on Low Dimensional Materials (NLDM) group is mainly focused on the study of the atomic structure and configuration, as well as the physical (electronic, optical, vibrational, mechanical) properties of low-dimensional nanomaterials based on carbon, boron and nitrogen, transition metal dichalcogenides as well as other nano-structures (in particular, metallic nano-objects for plasmonic/photonic interest). To accomplish these studies different TEM techniques are utilized (HR(S)TEM imaging, electron diffraction, EELS, EDS and electron tomography) as well as other spectroscopies as XPS and Raman. The group actively collaborates with industrial and academic partners in the area of graphene and related materials as well as other nanocarbon structures and materials.
