Abstract
The majority of plastic waste is not recycled. Impediments to the recycling of commodity polymers include separation, impurities and degradation of the macromolecular structures, all of which can negatively affect the properties of recycled materials. An attractive alternative is to transform polymers back into monomers and purify them for repolymerization - a form of chemical recycling w…
Heterogeneous single-atom based catalysts to chemo/photo-catalytic depolymerization: a route to circular polymer economy, AP.R SPRINT
Abstract
Traditionally most reports on cavity optomechanics to date rely on dispersively coupled optical and acoustic modes optomechanical experiments. However, a complete description of the optomechanical interaction must take into account a dissipative coupling, where the mechanical displacement modulates the optical mode linewidth. In this project, we explore new device designs and experiments …
Dissipative and dispersive optomechanical cavities, AP.R SPRINT
Abstract
This proposal aims to start a new international academic collaboration between USP and TU Delft. Considering the challenges are complex, the benefits of the academic interaction are mutual. The planet situation with the current scarcity of world resources, the increased energy costs and the increasing environmental awareness have in the last years increased the focus on the circular econ…

Abstract
Recently, there has been an increasing interest in the physical properties of heterostructures based on two-dimensional (2D) materials due their unique optical, electronic, mechanical and magnetic properties. It was recently shown that two-dimensional ferromagnetic vdW materials are also promising as effective building blocks for a new generation of "spintronics" devices.Here, we propose:…
Van der Waals Heterostructures for Spintronics, AP.R SPRINT
Abstract
This project aims to start a partnership between Universidade Estadual Paulista "Júlio de Mesquita Filho" / Centro de Estudos Ambientais (CEA/UNESP) and Delft University of Technology (TU Delft) through the exchange of Prof Dr Amauri Antonio Menegário e Prof Dr Robine M. de Kruijff, respectively. This partnership is based on tasks to be developed in both universities including the determi…
Tracking ecosystem releases by oil and natural gas production with marine tetrapod, AP.R SPRINT
Abstract
This proposal aims to produce epoxide monomers from vegetable oil photoepoxidation. The heterogeneous photocatalysts which will be employed for this task will be nickel single-atoms stabilized in poly(heptazine imides) (PHI). Poly(heptazine imides) are polymeric semiconductor composed of only atoms of carbon and nitrogen (carbon nitride-based material) which its framework is composed of h…
