About NANO@HMU group
The Nanomaterials for Emerging Devices (Nano@HMU) group, is a research unit within the Institute of Emerging Technologies of the Hellenic Mediterranean University, is dedicated to revolutionizing electronic and energy devices. With a focus on solution processable nanomaterials, the group is renowned for its ground-breaking work on interfacial engineering of perovskite and organic solar cells, achieving impressive enhancements in both performance and stability. In fact, Nano@HMU has even established its own solar testbed to evaluate photovoltaic modules and systems both indoor and outdoor. In addition, the group possesses unparalleled expertise in formulating and adjusting the optoelectronic properties of solution processable graphene and other 2D crystals, as well as their functionalization and doping for fine tuning of their energy levels and work-function. Furthermore, Nano@HMU develops printable and flexible electronic devices, such as humidity sensors, pressure sensors, light sensors and memristors for complex neuromorphic computations.
The group coordinates the interinstitutional postgraduate programme “MSc in Nanotechnology for Energy Applications" developed in the framework of an Erasmus LLP project, with the participation of the University of Crete and the Foundation of Research & Technology and the international conference “Nanotechnologies & Bionanosciences".
The Nano@HMU leads the Energy Generation WP of the EU Graphene Flagship initiative.
