Molecular design of hybrid organic-inorganic materials

Hybrid organic-inorganic materials offer a wide range of interesting applications especially in optics. Chemistry plays a major role in the elaboration and comprehension of such materials. Sol-gel process provide a method to blend, down to the molecular scale, organic and inorganic components. Examples of hybrid organic-inorganic materials for optics and optical characterizations of hybrid mate...

Organic-Inorganic Hybrid Materials for Supercapacitors

We present the design and development of hybrid organic – inorganic materials with improved electrochemical performance to be used in energy storage applications (e.g. supercapacitors). The systematic study carried out shows various carbon–based materials (e.g. activated carbons, graphene based materials) working as active substrates where the anchoring of inorganic species takes place (i.e. po...

Silica-based mesoporous organic-inorganic hybrid materials.

Mesoporous organic-inorganic hybrid materials, a new class of materials characterized by large specific surface areas and pore sizes between 2 and 15 nm, have been obtained through the coupling of inorganic and organic components by template synthesis. The incorporation of functionalities can be achieved in three ways: by subsequent attachment of organic components onto a pure silica matrix (gr...

Formation of molecular doping patterns in organic-inorganic hybrid films by a capillary electrophoresis doping technique.

A new technique is proposed for the fabrication of fine patterns of molecular doping in organic-inorganic hybrid materials by the combination of capillary electrophoresis doping (CED) and photolithography. The UV-induced polymerization of [Formula: see text] bonds in organic groups yields a fine contrast of structures with the desired pattern in organic-inorganic hybrid films, and CED treatment...
