Master's and Bachelor's projects:
Organic Micro/Nanowire Arrays for Flexible and Transparent Organic Electronics
Transparent and flexible electronics are promising in numerous technology areas, including displays, solar cells and sensors.The goal of this project is to fabricate organic micro/nanowire arrays and devices on transparent polymer substrates. More info about the project can be downloaded on (.pdf) or by contacting Yanhong Tong (yanhongtong@gmail.com).
Fluorescent Nano Fibers
Bo Wegge Laursen and Frederik Westerlund have recently discovered a new convenient way of making fluorescent nano fibers. You can read more about this interesting new project in this document.
Gold Nano Rods
If you are interested in single crystal gold nano rods, you can be a part of this project at the Nano-Science Center. Kasper Moth Poulsen and Thomas Bjørnholm are contact persons and you can read more about the project here.
Single insulated molecular wires with electrodes incorporated
This project will focus on connecting two gold nanorods selectively with one insulated molecular wire for use in molecular electronics. Asger B. Petersen and Thomas Bjørnholm are contact persons, and further details on the project are available here.
Single Molecules
The single molecule projects focuse on the intriguing new field of molecular electronics. We design, synthesize and investigate the properties of molecules that can be used in molecular electronics. You can read more about projects related to single molecules with Thomas Bjørnholm as supervisor here
Syntese af nye fluorescensfarvestoffer
Bachelor- eller speciale-projekter inden for syntese af nye cationiske fluorescensfarvestoffer vil fokusere på aromatisk nucleofil substitution (SNAr) på methoxysubstituerede triaryl carbocationer. Dette er et stærkt synteseredskab til at fremstille en lang række komplekse heterocycliske carbocationer med attraktive fluorescensegenskaber. Mulige projekter inden for dette område er: Syntese af nye fluoroforer med nærinfrarød (NIR) fluorescens (attraktive inden for fx medicinsk forskning pga. NIR-strålings store indtrængningsdybde i væv). Syntese af flydende krystallinske materialer til transport af lysenergi og sensorer. Syntese af særligt fotostabile fluoroforer til enkelt enzym sporing.
DNA-functionalised gold nanorods for hierarchical self-assembly of nano electronic compponents
Gold nanorods (AuNRs) are of interest for a wide range of applications, ranging from imaging and drug delivery to molecular electronics and they have been studied extensively for the last decade. An important issue in AuNR applications is the ability to self-assemble the rods in predictable structures on the nanoscale. More information available in this .pdf-file.
Self-Assembly of Gold Nanorods at the Air-Water Interface
Gold nanorods (AuNRs) are of interest for a wide range of applications, ranging from imaging and drug delivery to molecular electronics. An important issue in AuNR applications is the ability to self-assemble the rods in predictable structures on the nanoscale. This can be achieved using the so-called Langmuir-Blodgett technique.
