Materials and Processes for Micro and Nano Technologies

Technologies for Bio - Energy Transition - Sensing and Electronics
DISCOVER OUR RESEARCH ACTIVITIES
Our research group has being operating for over 30 years and involves researchers and professors committed to contributing to the study and development of materials and processes in the field of micro and nano technologies. Hence the name that represents us: MP4MNT, which stands for Materials and Processes for Micro and Nano Technologies. We are actively engaged in scientific research with technological transfer, the core elements of our mission.
Since its founding, the Group has embarked on a path of constant growth, developing and refining new skills and expanding its staff. Among the many positive outcomes achieved, we are particularly proud of the recognition and appreciation expressed by the companies we have collaborated with, and which have successfully implemented the technologies we developed.

Research Activities

The activities of the research Group extends mainly into 3 application areas:

Technologies for Bio

Study and development of nanotechnologies that can be implemented in early diagnostics and personalized medicine. Our researchers work on the development of nano-bio sensors (SERS), lab-on-a-chip, biocompatible 3D printing, electrical bio-detection, and bioactive surfaces. To succeed in all this, various cutting-edge technologies are employed.
DISCOVER

Energy Transition

Development of technologies aimed at facilitating the transition to more sustainable energy forms, both in production, distribution, and consumption, as well as the development of materials for sustainability. Current research activities include the study of methods for energy collection and subsequent storage, along with studies in power electronics and the investigation of innovative polymers and composites.
DISCOVER

Sensing and Electronics

Study and improvement of sensors, which are crucial in numerous fields of application, from health to environmental monitoring, including the automotive sector. Therefore, our researchers develop MEMS-based sensors, involving partners interested in applications and various types of nano sensors, rich in functionalities and potentials.
