Congratulations to Sara for her participation to E-MRS Spring Meeting 2021!
On the 3rd of June 2021, Sara presented our latest work at E-MRS Spring 2021 with a talk entitled Towards highly stable eco-friendly squaraine-protein phosphors for Bio-HLEDs. She presented promising results obtained in collaboration with ARTIBLED consortium about a novel bio-phosphor for Bio-HLEDs based on red-emitting protein-dye systems.
First anniversary of our Chair!
Time goes bye quickly, but we have achieved a lot over this year! We are growing, building, and getting ready a great teaching and research portfolio. Hope you can join us soon!
Congratulations to Luca, Elisa and Sara for their new contribution published on Advanced Energy Materials!
Recently, Luca, Elisa and Sara provided an extensive and critical overview of emerging biology and photovoltaics, toward the achievement of highly performing and sustainable bio‐based solar‐energy conversion technologies.

New Team Members: Stephanie and Alexander
We are very pleased to welcome our new PhD Students who will be working on bio-hybrids for energy-related applications.
Welcome Stepanie and Alexander!
Rubén presented the most innovative aspects and results of the FET-OPEN 863170 project ARTIBLED
Rubén presented the most innovative aspects and results of the FET-OPEN 863170 project ARTIBLED (Engineered ARTIficial proteins for Biological Light-Emitting Diodes) at the Research meets Industry event organized by the European Innovation Council. We hope that this event will help us to further exploit our ideas in the near future.

Congratulations to Elisa and Luca for their new paper published in Advanced Photonics Research !!!
BODIPY‐Pt‐Porphyrins Polyads for Efficient Near‐Infrared Light‐Emitting Electrochemical Cells
In this work, they and our colleagues from U. Crete have described the synthesis, characterization and implementation in NIR light emitting electrochemical cells of a series of BODIPY-Pt-porphyrin polyads. They described how the amount of fluorine atoms in the emitters, the efficiency of the intramolecular host-guest system, and the ionic conductivity influence the device performances towards highly efficient NIR sources.
Scientific Award Ateneo
Rubén has been awarded with the V scientific award Ateneo!!! The jury has highlighted the work of our team in sustainable technologies for lighting and photovoltaic as well as the innovative approaches to merge different research fields. Congratulations to all of us!
