A short Introduction to the Nano2Hybrid European Research Project. A video profiling a nanotechnology research project supported by a European Materials Research grant aims to produce a tiny gas sensor using nanotubes that have been developed to be s....

The Namur group are heading up the nano2hybrids project. They are the specialists in plasma treatment of the carbon nanotubes to activate their surfaces, followed by putting down metal nanoparticles under vacuum. These are then sent to Spain to be ma....

The Louvain-la-Neuve group are specialised in theoretical modelling at the atomic scale of the metal nanoparticles on the carbon nanotube surfaces, and in particular how electronic charge passes through the tubes in this case.

The ULB partner in the project are specialised in plasma surface treatment under air, rather than vacuum - it's the next step up in scaling up the plasma treatment of the nanotubes after the Namur group. In the earlier stages of the project they are ....

Institut des Materiaux, Nantes, France. The IMN group are specialists in computer modelling - in this case, of atomic defects and damage in the surface of the carbon nanotubes caused by the plasma treatment. What is the plasma doing to the nanotube s....

The Tarragona Group at University Rovira i Virgili are the experts in producing new prototype gas sensors. All the new metal particle treated nanotube samples from Belgium and Luxembourg make their way down to this beautiful corner of Spain, where th....

Sensotran are the industrial partner in the nano2hybrids project. A small family firm based just outside Barcelona in Spain, they are experts in commercial production of gas sensors for a range of industries, notably for detecting dangerous gases pro....
