Company Profile
A startup headquartered in beautiful Bratislava, Danubia NanoTech combines a highly
qualified team with wide ranging experience in nanoscale physics,
along
with close connections to some of the best centers of research and
development in Europe, all of it in a low cost but well endowed
environment.
Fields of specialization include:
- We prepare carbon nanotubes by
- arc - discharge and
- laser ablation methods.
- As prepared, carbon nanotubes are purified using
- Final material is characterized by
- Raman spectroscopy and
- optical spectroscopy,
- X-ray diffraction (XRD),
- atomic force microscopy (AFM),
- electrical conductivity and
- thermal conductivity.
- We mix pure and well characterized material with various polymers
to obtain composites with high electrical and thermal conductivity
and mechanical performance.
- We can produce conductive transparent networks of nanotube with
great potential applications (sensors, field-effect transistors).
- Computer simulations
- Density functional theory
- Semiempirical methods
- Scientific visualization
- Electronic and phonon band-structure
The Team
The founders of Danubia NanoTech are physicists with considerable
experience in nano-science and nanotechnology. They are co-authors of
about 500 publications in the field of Carbon Nanotube research, and
two of them share an ownership of five patents.
The members of the
group have been active at well-established institutions as Max Planck
Institute of Solid State Research, Stuttgart (Germany), University
Vienna (Austria), Wake Forest University (USA), Weizmann Institute
(Israel) and others.
Active members to date include:
- Dr. Viera Skákalová, Managing Director / Senior Scientist
- Dr. Martin Hulman
- Dr. Miroslav Haluška
- Dr. Orest Dubay
- Computer simulations and development of scientific software
- Ing. Viliam Vretenár
