Tripon Carmen

Dr. Carmen Tripon is a senior researcher at the National Institute for Research and Development of Isotopic and Molecular Technologies in Cluj-Napoca, Romania, where she contributes to the Advanced Materials, Energy and Technologies Department through her work in quantum engineering and material science.

• MSc in Physics of Oxidic Systems (2002, Babeș-Bolyai University)
• PhD in Physics (2009, Babeș-Bolyai University)

Her research focus spans atomic and molecular physics, photothermal techniques for material characterization, screening pharmaceutical solid forms, solid-state NMR for molecular structure elucidation, and UV-induced DNA degradation in plants. She develops advanced materials for environmental remediation, drug delivery systems, and energy storage solutions.

Recent publications highlight her expertise in environmental science (adsorbent design, photocatalysis), biomedical engineering (nanocarriers for wound healing/melanoma imaging), and energy technology (supercapacitors, magnetic fluids). Key subfields include graphene-based sensors, metal-doped nanomaterials, and sustainable waste valorization for pollutant removal.
