Brief description:  This project is focused on development of gas sensors based on polymer/graphene composites based on two techniques: on one side production of water borne composites by emulsion polymerization techniques and on the other, ablation of these composites by IR or UV lasers and preparation of electrically conductive thin films. The specific thermal process occurring during laser ablation leads to ablative deposition of materials which cannot be produced by slow conventional heating.
