Nanomaterials for fabrication of photonic and electronic devices and their use as
sensors and catalysts for environmental protection
Various methods for preparing 1D, 2D and 3D nanomaterials will be elaborated to arrive
at reliable and reproducible ways of fabricating nanowires, nanostructured thin films and
complex three-dimensional structures. After having appropriate preparation and
characterisation methods various applications are aimed at. They include catalytic,
photocatalytic, medicinal, optical, energy storing, and etc. These methods are used at
the Departments of Chemistry and Physics, University of Szeged
Integrated Project Submissions to FP6
Elaboration and application of chiral recognition systems
The aim of this research is the elaboration, investigation, and application of chiral
recognition systems. These chiral recognition systems are heterogeneous metal
catalysts, transition metal complex catalysts, resolving agents, phase-transfer
catalysts, chromatographic stationary phases and chemical sensors. This technology is
in development at the Budapest University of Technology and Economics, Faculty of
Chemical Engineering, Department of Chemical Technology.
Intelligent Nanostructured Polymer Systems for Safe and Healthy Environment
The project aims to utilise external signals for transforming the internal structure of
materials according to the requirements of safe and healthy environment. Sensing
mechanisms, to be built into the systems, will initiate adequate material-answer. The
common approach to the innovation includes development of detection and control
mechanisms, new additives, nanostructures, transport properties and engineered
surfaces. Budapest University of Technology and Economics, Department of Organic
