“The objective of my thesis was to develop nanostructured materials and use them to carry out artificial photosynthesis, that is, to imitate what plants do, which is to use solar energy to produce another type of energy. Our study on the conversion of light into heat allowed us to gain a greater understanding of how these materials manipulate this energy.”, pointed out Matías Herrán regarding his PhD thesis from the Nanomaterials for Energy group, led by Emiliano Cortes from the University of Munich.
Both researchers participated in the study and are graduates of the University of La Plata (UNLP). In this work, Herrán explained, it is important to capture sunlight and find materials that can be used to assist chemical reactions and provide solutions to energy problems.
