THE NANOPARTICLES ATELIER

The Nanoparticles Atelier

Alternative compositions, sizes, morphology and surface conjugation can be tailored to fulfill your needs

Our expertise after years of research on the synthesis of inorganic NPs, we have knowledge on the production of many different metallic (as Au, Ag, Pt, Pd, Fe, Co, Ni), metal oxide (LuO, CuO, PbO) and semiconductor NPs (QDs: CdSe, CdS, ZnS, …), as much as heterodimers (as Au-CeO2, Ag-TiO2) and multialloyed structures with different shapes (including hollow NCs). Different surface coatings (including biocompatibilizing coating, specific peptides, antibodies, etc.), dispersion media and preserving atmospheres can be provided.

All can be customized depending on your needs.

Prices will vary depending on the requested material and amount.
