Main interests:
My group focus on the study of the atomic structure, atomic composition and defect behavior of nanomaterials, through aberration-corrected TEM/STEM and in-situ TEM/STEM, coupled with EELS/EDS and DPC. In particular, the group is interested in understanding the relationships between the atomic structure, composition and properties of nanomaterials, and the fundamental mechanisms governing the behavior of materials. The material systems of interest include battery materials, catalyst nanoparticles for proton exchange membrane fuel cells and water electrolysis, as well as 2D materials. Paulo R. Fernandes
