• Metal-Free Photocatalysis: Two-Dimensional Nanomaterial Connection toward Advanced Organic Synthesis 

  Rosso, Cristian; Filippini, Giacomo; Criado, Alejandro; Melchionna, Michele; Fornasiero, Paolo; Prato, Maurizio (American Chemical Society, 2021-03-21)

  [Abstract]: Two-dimensional (2D) nanostructures are a frontier in materials chemistry as a result of their extraordinary properties. Metal-free 2D nanomaterials possess extra appeal due to their improved cost-effectiveness ...

• Agarose-Based Fluorescent Waveguide with Embedded Silica Nanoparticle–Carbon Nanodot Hybrids for pH Sensing 

  Amato, Francesco; Soares, Marco C. P.; Cabral, Thiago Destri; Fujiwara, Eric; Cordeiro, Cristiano Monteiro de Barros; Criado, Alejandro; Prato, Maurizio; Bartoli, Julio Roberto (American Chemical Society, 2021-08-20)

  [Abstract]: The fabrication of a biodegradable and fluorescent cylindrical waveguide with doped hybrid nanoparticles (silica–carbon nanodots) is reported. The fluorescent hybrids were obtained by coupling amino-functionalized ...

• The Reactivity of Reduced Graphene Depends on Solvation 

  Hou, Huilei; Merino, Juan P.; Criado, Alejandro; Hirsch, Andreas; Prato, Maurizio (IOP Publishing, 2019-02-01)

  [Abstract]: The reactivity of reduced graphene sheets (graphenide), obtained by dissolution of graphite intercalation compounds, in particular KC8, was systemically studied by cova-lent functionalization with 4-fluoroben ...

• Electrochemically Controlled Cleavage of Imine Bonds on a Graphene Platform: Towards New Electro-Responsive Hybrids for Drug Release 

  Hou, Huilei; Cardo, Lucia; Mancino, Donato; Arnaiz, Blanca; Criado, Alejandro; Prato, Maurizio (Royal Society of Chemistry, 2020-11-25)

  [Abstract]: Graphene-based materials are particularly suitable platforms for the development of new systems able to release drugs upon the application of controlled electrochemical stimuli. Herein, we report a new ...

• 2D Van der Waals Heterostructures for Chemical Sensing 

  Hou, Huilei; Anichini, Cosimo; Samorì, Paolo; Criado, Alejandro; Prato, Maurizio (Wiley-VCH, 2022-10-10)

  [Abstract]: During the last 15 years, 2D materials have revolutionized the field of materials science. Moreover, because of their highest surface-to-volume ratio and properties extremely susceptible to their interaction ...
