Welcome to the FMolina-Lopez research group website!

The FMolinaLopez Research team is working on the development of printed, flexible/stretchable/soft hybrid organic-inorganic electronic materials. Our vision is to develop new materials and processes to enable harvesting and storing energy from large-area and curved surfaces and develop mechanically conformal sensors and actuators. The focus is on the connecting line that spans from fundamentals to applications such as autonomous systems for wearables, soft robotics, and the IoT.

NEWS

  • Feb. 2025 Juhyung has been awarded the prestigious MSCA European Postdoc Fellowship to develop organic thermoelectric generators. Congratulations!

  • Jan. 2025 Our new review on hybrid functional stretchable materials is finally out in Materials Science & Engineering: R! This work is intended to be a guide for engineers to design their hybrid stretchable sensors and energy devices. Congratulations to the two first co-authors: Altynay and Viktor.

  • Feb. 2024 Altynay has been awarded the prestigious MSCA European Postdoc Fellowship to work on skin-compatible substrates for thermoelectrics. Congratulations!
     

  • Jan. 2024. Our recent work in laser-printed flexible inorganic thermoelectrics has been highlighted by KU Leuven News (link here)!
     

  • Dec. 2023. Congratulations to Yuan, Isidro, and the other co-author for getting their last work on laser-printed ultra-flexible inorganic thermoelectrics published in Advanced Materials... And it is now part of the series Rising Stars, dedicated to celebrating research from early career investigators.

  • Prof. Zhenan Bao from Stanford University is one of the 2021 KU Leuven honorary doctors. She was nominated by Francisco. Congrats Zhenan! See the official intro and interview video here.​​​

  • Sept. 2020. Francisco got awarded the ERC starting grant to work on the project 3D ALIGN: Enhancing the performance of 3D-printed organic thermoelectrics by electric field-assisted molecular alignment. ​
