TTC #81 Smart Nanostructured Surfaces

Published: Sept. 4, 2014, midnight

b'Dr. Evangelos Gogolides, holder of 8 patents and author of many publications, talks about his team\\u2019s research on nanostructured surfaces. He explains in simple terms what nanotexturing is -a term they coined- and how the method chemically modifies surfaces using plasma processing; thus creating water, oil, ice & microorganism repellent surfaces useful, for different applications, from 100-fold sensitive protein microarrays to self cleaning clothes. He goes on to compare research in Greece and abroad and talks about the opportunities in Greece for local researchers. Interviewed by Vicki Kolovou for Tech Talks Central.'
