Dr. Gouma has developed a new program focusing on nanoscience and nanotechnology,
involving the characterization of advanced materials and the
development of biochemicalsensors and artificial
olfaction systems. By exploiting the "structuresensitivity" of polymorphic oxides
highly specific gas detectors have been produced by our group. The
synthesis of novel nanocomposites using electrospinning has led to the
development of nanoscale sensor array probes for gas and bio-metabolite
detection. This is a diverse program with projects on the synthesis of metal
oxide nanowires, the encapsulation of biomolecules inactive matrices
(i.e. gas sensitive oxides and/or polymers) and the developmentof
sensor arrays for medical applications. Overall, the focus of our
research is on understanding the physical and chemical behavior of
materials at the nanoscale and at the same time enabling the exploration of
innovative technologies that have the potential to significantly benefit the
human welfare.
