I am a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Postdoctoral Fellow studying physical and chemical phenomena that controls activity and degradation in electrochemical materials for energy storage and conversion. I am currently based in the Department of Chemistry of the University of Warwick (UK).
I hold a PhD in Physical and Analytical Chemistry from University of Oviedo (Spain). I have also been a postdoctoral researcher at KTH Royal Institute of Technology (Sweden) and Applications Specialist at Metrohm Dropsens (Spain). I have had a multidisciplinary experience working with materials for electrochemical applications including sustainable energy storage and conversion, biomass valorisation and analytical sensing.
I have been analyzing some High-Resolution Transmission Electron Microscopy (HR-TEM) images of metallic nanoparticles recently, and one of the most useful properties to obtain is the d-spacing values from the crystalline structure of individual nanoparticles Read more…
Last weeks I have been trying to learn how to use first-principles calculations to study electrochemical reactions. I am specifically using software for Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations with the goal to apply it to Read more…
Electrochemistry is a quite old science since its birthday is considered to be in the 18th century but I think that, scientifically-speaking, it is in the best moment of its life. As an electrochemistry I Read more…
