Carbon nanomaterials (such as single and multi-walled carbon nanotubes, graphene, fullerene, carbon dots and graphene quantum dots) have important technological applications ranging from transistors, sensors, optoelectronic, biochemical, to catalysis among others. Graphene quantum dots (GQDs) represent the latest form of carbon relevant in all these areas. GQDs are graphene nanoparticles …
The excitation of plasmon-polariton modes on the surface of metallic nanoparticles (NPs) enables a variety of applications for these materials, such as photocatalysts and photovoltaic and sensing devices. Plasmon excitation in NPs implies an increase in the intensity of spectroscopic signals from adsorbed molecules, in particular, the enhancement of Raman spectra (surface-enhanced Raman s…
Several research activities in the Laboratório de Espectroscopia Molecular, Instituto de Química, Universidade de São Paulo, LEM/IQ-USP, are related to infrared and Raman spectroscopy. Coupling of optical microscopes to infrared and Raman spectrometers provides to vibrational spectroscopy the spatial resolution of the order of micrometer or below micrometer, then combining molecular struc…
Several research activities in the Laboratório de Espectroscopia Molecular, Instituto de Química, Universidade de São Paulo, LEM/IQ-USP, are related with infrared and Raman spectroscopy of condensed phases, such as interfaces, colloids, electrodes, molecular and ionic liquids, molecular probes in non-aqueous solvents, polymers, carbon nanotubes etc. In this research project, spectroscopic…
The medium and long term trend in chemistry seems to point in the direction of complex systems, according to the academic community. Largely used in different fields of knowledge, from biology to mathematics, "complex systems" may encompass very distinct definitions. In chemistry, it is used both to describe systems made of many components where the interactions follow a non-linear formal…
Serotonin, dopamine and adrenaline are biochemical messengers and regulators that have numerous critical biological functions, which involve the control of brain activity and neurotransmission. Some endogenous compounds and drugs bind to receptors for such neurotransmitters and activate them. Many serotonin receptor agonists are used as antidepressants and anxiolytics. Some psychotic agen…
Carbon nanomaterials nanoscale dimensions (such as single and multi-walled carbon nanotubes, graphene, fullerene, carbon dots and graphene quantum dots) have important technological applications such as transistors, sensors, and optoelectronic applications.

The focus of this project lies in the systematic study of the synthesis procedures of nanomaterials formed by Au/Pd anisotropic metal nanoparticles (thus combining the plasmonic properties of Au to the catalytic properties of Pd) immobilized on different supports targeting specific applications such as catalytic and SERS-active materials. Different routes will be evaluated for the chemica…
Surface Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS) was first observed in 1974 by Fleischmann et. al. Since then, the SERS technique has emerged as an important tool in the detection of very small amounts of compounds of interest, thanks to the immense advantages of this tool over others well established ones, mainly due to its ultra-sensitivity, low interference of the solvent in aqueous solution…

Surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) has established itself as an important analytical tool for the detection of chemical and biological analytes of interest. The implementation of SERS has been conditioned to the preparation of Ag and Au nanostructured substrates, which allow the acquisition of characteristic vibrational bands due to the high concentration of the incident field on …
