Hi all again,

may be I should start with my work.

At the moment, I'm involved in different projects. My main work is focused on investigating thermal effects of microwave on electrochemistry. For this work, we look at the systems which are dependent on temperature. Then, by applying the microwave radiation, depends on the electrode size and material, electrolyte concentration, the electrode positioning in microwave. The electrode in microwave acts as an antenna to focuse the microwave radiation at the electrode surface.

The other work is focused on microdisk nanoelectrodes developement in electroanalysis. We prepare these electrodes by laser puller and we plan to investigate the effect of size on different systems to understand their behavior and to suggest the possible applications.

The third area I'm working now is focused on membrane electrochemistry. We look at the behavior and application of different membranes mostly based on nanoparticle oxides or cellulose.

Looking forward to hearing from all of you!

Hi Harry,

thanks for your message. I prepare membrane usually by solvent evaporation or layer by layer assembly method on ITO or glassy carbon electrode and then I characterize them with different techniques including electrochemistry.

I'm not sure if I replied you in a correct way. please feel free to ask me more detailed questions. I'm happy to reply.

Best regards,

Liza

Hi Harry,

sorry that it took me a while to get back to you. Still I'm not sure if I get your question in correct way. What do you mean by practical approch? I mean which part of the practical approach is interesting for you? We don't do experiment with metal oxide in solution. At least I have not done that but your question is very interesting.

I have some experience with TiO2 nanoparticles and aluminum oxide nanoparticles. We make a membrane from these oxide and the we look at their behavior. I mean we characterize them and then we find their possible applications regards to their pore size. But you are right, their behavior is just very different for each system.

By the way, their conductivity in the membrane also is very different depending on the membrane composition. Sometimes, the membrane is electroactive it self and sometimes not.

Please let me know if there is any more questions. I'm happy to discuss my works.

Do you work on any special membrane?

Best regards,

Liza

Hi Harry,

thanks for your message. May I ask you how do you immobilize the polyoxolmetalates on the surface of GC electrode? Have you ever come across any papers using the layer by layer assembly of polyoxolmetalates on the electrode surface? Have you ever tried polyoxolmetalates on other electrodes such as ITOs?

and the important one! Could yould you please give me a short introduction on the polyoxolmetalates and very important characteristics of them?

Too many questions!!! Sorry!

Many thanks,

Liza
