Computational Robot Design & Fabrication Lab (CREATE)
The CREATE Lab aims to develop new fabrication and computational design tools for the development of robots with new and exciting capabilities, and to better understand the physical world.
Energy Transport Advances Laboratory (η-Lab)
The eta-Lab aims to obtain deeper understandings of interfacial transport physics. We then leverage these fundamental understandings to expand scientific possibilities and create high-performance, low-carbon-footprint solutions for cooling, power generation, clean water production, and beyond.
Laboratory for Processing of Advanced Composites (LPAC)
The LPAC is to establish the scientific base for the next generation of materials and processes in the fast-growing fields of polymers and composites.
Laboratory of Construction Materials (LMC)
At the LMC, we are doing intensive research to further improve the world’s most used material – cement and concrete.
Laboratory of Macromolecular and Organic Materials (LMOM)
Our research interests revolve around the intricate balance of order and disorder in materials as a tool to control structure formation on the supramolecular, nanoscopic, or microscopic length scale.
Laboratory of Semiconductor Materials (LMSC)
Our research focuses on the synthesis of novel semiconductor nanostructures and the study of their properties, aiming at two applications that will impact our society in the XXI century: quantum science and renewable energy harvesting.
Polymers Laboratory (LP)
Our research activities are located at the interface of chemistry, biology and materials science and involve both preparative organic/polymer synthesis and characterization, structural analysis and the investigation of materials properties.
Supramolecular Nano-Materials and Interfaces Laboratory (SuNMIL)
SuNMIL is a vibrant group of researchers that combine multiple backgrounds and integrate various disciplines to create and investigate novel materials that tackle the experimental investigation of supramolecular interfaces.
Sustainable Materials Laboratory (SML)
At SML we research renewable and underutilized bio-based resources for sustainable material alternatives. Our focus is on fungal, cellulosic, and proteinaceous feedstocks.
