Grant
Solar project granted
Group of Prof. Wojciech Macyk is one of three Polish research teams involved in projects awarded in the Solar-Driven Chemistry call. The project Interfacial engineering of semiconductors for highly selective light-driven chemical transformations, investigated by Prof. Wojciech Macyk, is aimed to study the possibility of selectivity control in photo(electro)catalytic processes through engineering the semiconductor/solvent or semiconductor/gas interfaces. Photo(electro)catalytic reactions are the solar-driven processes that can be used to produce solar fuels, fine chemicals or to depollute water and air. The project will involve research teams led by Prof. Radim Beránek from Ulm University (project leader), Prof. Timo Jacob (Ulm University), and Prof. Markku Leskela (University of Helsinki).
Congratulations!
Cooperation
The Poland – Ukraine scientific exchange project granted.
Group of Photocatalysis together with a group of prof. Tatarchuk from Vasyl Stefanyk Precarpathian National University obtained a grant from the National Agency Science for Academic Exchange (NAWA). The project title is “Photocatalytic hybrid systems for water purification.”
Congratulations!
Grant
MINIATURA project granted
Dr. Mateusz Trochowski obtained a grant from the National Science Centre within Miniatura 3 program. The project goal and title are “Selective photocatalytic reduction of aromatic nitro compounds in the presence of zinc oxide decorated with noble metal nanoparticles.”.
Congratulations!
Grant
PRELUDIUM project granted
MSc Paweł Mikrut obtained a grant from National Science Centre within Preludium 17 program. The project goal and title are “Crystals with exposed selected crystallographic facets – a new approach to designing anodes for photo-fuel cells”.
Congratulations!

Visiting professor
Our group becomes more and more international. For one month we will host Prof. Minoru Mizuhata from Kobe University. During his stay at our faculty, the professor will conduct two courses entitled “Ceramics prepared by low-temperature synthesis-soft solution process” and “Structure and properties of electrolyte solution”.
