Description research

The research is focused on the development of technologies for energy harvesting   and its application to engineering,   biocompatible materials  are used,  basically in the form of carbon nanostructures, metal oxides and polymers. Nowadays, a flexible structure for supercapacitors are been developed for energy storage applications.
