DESCRIPTION:Dr. Michaël ROSSIER\nAvantama AG\, Stäfa (Zurich)\, Switzerl
 and\nChE-606 - Highlights in Energy Research seminar series\nNanoparticles
  and their composite materials have attracted considerable interest during
  the last decades because of their optical\, catalytic\, mechanical and el
 ectrical properties\, resulting in a wide range of applications. Avantama 
 uses flame spray pyrolysis to produce its high quality powder\, allowing t
 he synthesis of precise and homogenous nanoparticles with virtually limitl
 ess chemical compositions. Furthermore\, flame spray pyrolysis allows the 
 rapid development of new materials and has proven its scalability up to th
 e multi-ton scale.\nTo overcome the difficult usage of dry nanopowder in i
 ndustrial processes\, Avantama has developed a large know-how in formulati
 on engineering. The formulation engineering is one of our core competencie
 s\, enabling us to help our customers to overcome tomorrow’s innovation 
 challenges. The fine tuning of the formulation properties opens the door t
 o the deposition of nanoparticles by roll-to-roll printing and thus allows
  the use of nanoparticles in applications requiring an efficient depositio
 n method over a large area\, as needed in printed electronics. Avantama fo
 rmulations allow the coating of thin layers\, for example such as the ones
  used in the production of organic photovoltaic devices.\nIn addition to c
 reating nanoparticles by flame spray synthesis\, we at Avantama also devel
 oped a novel approach to synthesizing Perovskite quantum dots on an indust
 rial scale. Our proprietary production process yields the most efficient q
 uantum dots at industrial scale.\n\nThe seminar can also be followed remot
 ely by joining the online Cisco WebEx meeting (connection possible 15 minu
 tes before the talk).\nSee here the documentation how to install the Cisco
  WebEx add-on on your computer.\nIn case of problem\, you can contact our
