EPSRC- TOUCAN Critical Mass Conference

Shaping Nanocatalysts

The goal of this workshop is to explore the opportunities for the characterization and optimization of nanocatalysts arising from recent advances in controlling their formation process. The control of the geometrical shape of multi-metallic nanoparticles is an efficient way to tune electronic properties and physicochemical features. This workshop will focus on addressing how morphology influences catalytic activity, including the use of plasmonic nanoparticles as nanocatalysts . The format is a one day tutorial followed by two full days workshop.
