`Electrocatalytic denitrification is a promising technology for the
removal of NOx species in groundwater. However, a lack of
understanding of molecular reaction pathways that control the
overpotential and product distribution have limited the advancement of
NO chemistry to the same level of well-understood electrocatalytic
processes like oxygen reduction reaction. Nitrate and...

`Oxides are active materials for multiple applications including catalysis and particularly for energy purposes. However, many properties are still not full understood and fundamental questions regarding the structure are far from being known. In the present talk, I will give a description of key structural issues that might affect the properties of these materials.`

`Iron(II) spin crossover (SCO) complexes continue to attract a great deal of interest [1,2], due to their potential technological applications, for instance in pressure sensors [3]. SCO nanomaterials have emerged as an appealing class of materials considering nanostructuration processes and size reduction effects. Although sophisticated techniques can be used for the preparation of SCO...

`KFe$_2$As$_2$ belonging to the most investigated family of iron-based superconductors, AFe$_2$As$_2$ (A = alkali metal or alkali earth metal) is the first self-doped iron pnictide compound that does not need chemical substitutions or imposing of pressure to superconduct. However, the superconducting transition temperature, 3.8 K, is rather low [1]. It rises with partial substitution of Sr or...

`Hydrogen is seen as one of the important energy carriers of this century and is indicated as a fuel of future. Research problem of physical properties of metal hydrides is strongly connected with very actual topical issues of the hydrogen storage. Especially interesting and promising are hydrides of intermetallic compounds. Among widely studied RT$_2$H$_x$ systems (R a rare earth or alkaline...
