Versatile Chromism of Titanium Oxide Hydrate/Poly(vinyl alcohol) Hybrid Systems.
An entirely new, versatile and broad class of materials is being developed based on this research for use in photonic applications, metamaterials, but also energy harvesting devices. Key advantages are. (i) solution processability, (ii) versatility in chemical composition and thus properties, (iii) low cost of precursors and starting components.
The project led in 2011 to a €1.25 Million European Research Council (ERC) Starting Independent Researcher Grant for N. Stingelin (ERC-2011-StG No. 279587), and interests from industrial partners including BASIC (Saudi Arabia; theo.hoeks@sabic-ip.com); BASF (adrian.von-muehlenen@basf.com) and Pepsi (USA; contact: Said Farha).
