Photochemical Synthesis on Surfaces.
Synergistic Project funded by the Community of Madrid under grant ref. Y2020/NMT-6469.
Insterdisciplinary studies based on nanoscopic systems
The ESISNA group, led by Prof. José Ángel Martín Gago, is located in the Institute of Materials Science (CSIC) in Madrid, Spain. The group is interested in the study at the nanoscale of low-dimensional system, searching for alternative methodologies to induce tailored chemical reactions by using model systems. We focus on the interaction between adsorbates and surfaces in ultra-high-vacuum.
The main research lines comprise on surface chemistry, graphene and other 2D systems, organics on oxide surfaces and astrochemistry and surface science.
