Materials Synthesis Department focuses on advanced materials. The aim of our research is to obtain knowledge of materials chemistry for the controlled synthesis of new materials with desirable properties. Materials of interest are nanoparticles, (nano)composites, colloids, magnetic fluids, ceramics for applications in medicine, electronics, chemical technology, biotechnology, ecology, and sensorics.

We are involved in a national project Gravitacija “Nanostructured hybrid semiconducting materials” that gathered all main Slovenian research institutions. The project is coordinated by University Nova Gorica. Other partners are University of Ljubljana (Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Faculty of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering), University of Maribor (Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science) and National Institute of Chemistry. The three-year project started on 10. 1. 2024. Our colleagues, Darja Lisjak, Sebastjan Nemec and Katja Drobež, participated at the kick-off meeting on 7. 11. 2024 at the University of Nova Gorica
