Francesco Caddeo

My research background includes: synthesis and characterization of silica-based aerogel nanocomposites, shape-selective synthesis of metal-oxide nanoparticles, MD simulations, electrochemical synthesis of MOFs and photo-electrochemistry. I am currently working on the preparation of thin-films and their application for PEC water splitting. My interests also include heterogeneous photocatalysis in the gas-phase and in general the preparation of new materials for energy related applications.
