Title: Laser-surface processing for green Hydrogen and energy storage applications
Speaker: Panagiotis A. Loukakos (IESL-FORTH)

Venue: Online
In this talk I will present our recent work on the application of laser-surface processing in the fabrication of nanostructured metallic electrodes. These electrodes have been found to exhibit enhanced electrochemical properties and they have been used in water-splitting electrochemical cells where we have found that they produce almost 5 times as much Hydrogen when compared with flat metallic electrodes. The enhanced Hydrogen evolution reactivity and electrochemical properties are attributed to the concomitant enlargement of the electrode’s electrocatalytic area due to the nanostructured surface. The details of the experiments as well as the impact of applications of lasers in the energy and environmental sectors will be discussed.
