Our facilities
Laboratory of Hybrid Technologies
This laboratory integrates additive manufacturing with electrochemical screening to enable rapid prototyping and evaluation of functional sensors and responsive materials. The research combines microfabrication, precision deposition, and electrochemical diagnostics to shorten the development cycle from concept to tested device.
Printing and patterning techniques are used to produce complex electrode architectures, flexible substrates, and hybrid polymer–metal systems tailored for environmental and biomedical sensing applications.
The laboratory’s infrastructure enables real-time analytical feedback during fabrication and testing. A potentiostat with dynamic EIS capabilities (Autolab) and an integrated SECM system provide spatially resolved electrochemical mapping. Supporting tools include a laser plotter for microstructuring, a sonoplotter for precise material deposition, and portable multiplexer-based systems (PalmSens) for parallel sensor measurements.
