Main research interests

  • Liquid-state NMR spectroscopy of isotropic and partially ordered samples
  • NMR relaxation and diffusion studies
  • NMR-based structural and dynamic characterization of innovative materials (ionic liquids and deep eutectic solvents), complex matrices (i.e. vegetable oils) and inclusion complexes (i.e. cyclodextrins/drug)
  • Characterization of structure and transport properties in electrolytes for batteries
  • Development of innovative pulse sequences suitable for isotropic and weakly ordered solutes
