¤ About project
The EnGraMS project aims the design and fabrication of novel engineering nano-systems based on graphene-like materials, including reduced graphene oxide (rGO), graphene quantum dots (GQDs), and transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), using micro-nanotechnologies for miniaturized supercapacitors development, with potential applications in several priority domains, like portable electronics or implantable medical devices industry. The charge storage mechanism in supercapacitor electrodes based on these nanomaterials is still unclear, either when they are alone or even more when they are interacting with one other.
