Benefits of technology

This patented technology allows creation of tiny structures called zinc oxide (ZNO) nanosheets that can hold small molecules like water or oxygen inside them without being affected when they are introduced into another material's interior through channels made up from this modified microsystem. These modifications make it easier to handle these materials while still maintain their effectiveness at producing chemical transformations such as decomposition of organics.

Problems solved by technology

Technological Problem: Current methods for separating or recirculating nanospheres from liquid solutions require large areas of space, which limit its usefulness in small scale chemistry processes where they may occupy most part of volume. Therefore there has arisen an urgent technical challenge how to develop efficient ways to grow titanium oxide onto surfaces without compromising the desired properties like enhancing light absorption ability at certain wavelength ranges.
