معرفی
Dr. Bart de Nijs is a Royal Society University Research Fellow at the Cavendish Laboratory, University of Cambridge. His research focuses on exploiting plasmonic nanogaps to study and control chemical processes at the atomic scale, aiming to develop efficient nanophotonic reactors for applications like CO2 reduction and plastic breakdown. He specializes in surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS), plasmonic nanocavities, and optomechanical effects in nanostructured systems.
His work integrates plasmonics with catalysis, materials science, and nanotechnology. Key projects include designing reusable SERS sensors, tracking molecular dynamics in confined spaces, and leveraging light-matter interactions for chemical reactions. He collaborates widely, with research supported by The Royal Society and Cavendish Laboratory facilities.
Scientific achievements include pioneering studies on single-atom optomechanics, nanogap engineering for SERS, and applications in environmental remediation. His awards include the prestigious URF from The Royal Society.
