Entrepreneurial strategies of Etna wine farms
2014
Viticulture, as well as agriculture in general, performs an environmental and landscaping function and it encourages rural development through the creation of income and job opportunities in the areas where wine is produced. The wine sector, in fact, is of great social and economic importance within the Sicilian agriculture and food industry, because of the job opportunities it provides and due to Sicilian pedoclimatic peculiarities, variety of grape wines cultivars and production process. The present study aims at assessing the competitiveness of small and medium-sized enterprises that cultivate wine grapes in the Etna area. In particular, it has been examined a sample of wine farms that p…
Hybrid magnetic materials based on coordination chemistry: from switching magnetic molecules to 2D coordination polymers
2015
El trabajo descrito en esta tesis se encuadra en el ámbito de los materiales moleculares. Presenta varias estrategias para preparar nuevos materiales híbridos multifuncionales. Los complejos de transición de espín (SCO) constituyen uno de los ejemplos más espectaculares de biestabilidad molecular. En estos sistemas, las transiciones entre los estados de bajo espín (LS) y alto espín (HS) pueden estar inducidos por una variedad de estímulos externos (temperatura, presión o radiación electromagnética). Además de los interesantes aspectos fundamentales, este fenómeno es de interés creciente en el área de los materiales funcionales debido a las posibles aplicaciones en sensores, memorias o dispo…

Multifunctional polymer/inorganic hybrid nanoparticles with controlled structure
2019
Hybrids and composite materials offer a synergic combination of polymer and inorganic features. The integration of specific functionalities at the nanoscale leads to the improvement of the characteristics of macroscopic materials. In this context, the attractiveness of multifunctional polymer–inorganic nanoparticles is remarkable. The relative arrangement of the components forming the hybrid nanostructure determines the accessibility of the functionalities, the properties, and the applicability of the material. Colloidal methods have been traditionally used for the preparation of hybrid nanoparticles, but the precise control of their morphology remains still a challenge. The objective of th…

Innovative, Translucent and Multi-functional Components for the Building Envelope: technological and performance optimization
2017
The paper describes the actions aimed at the technology and performance optimization of an innovative, multi-functional building component made of precast and pre-stressed glass blocks useful for the construction of sustainable building envelopes able to reduce the energy consumption and to produce clean energy from the sun. The design optimization of different sub-components and the choice of the right materials for guaranteeing their good response in terms of mechanical resistance, thermal and acoustic insulation, light transmission, electricity production, integration with other components, dimensional coordination, are particularly described.
Multifunctional role of medicinal and aromatic plants: Perspectives and constraints
2008
Multifunctionality is one of the newest claims addressed to agricultural practices, that are nowadays requested to overpass their classical role to furnish food and fibers for human needs, also addressing to the fulfillment of other human necessities, such as to accomplish recreational services and to give a contribute for environmental safeguard. Medicinal and aromatic plants (MAPs) may be an important tool for the advancement of agricultural practice towards multifunctionality: they represent a mean for crop (and economical) diversification, contribute to land valorization by means of their aesthetical value, may fit into integrated agro-industrial pathways, may give raw matters and inter…
Enhancing Light Emission in Interface Engineered Spin-OLEDs through Spin-Polarized Injection at High Voltages
2019
The quest for a spin-polarized organic light-emitting diode (spin-OLED) is a common goal in the emerging fields of molecular electronics and spintronics. In this device, two ferromagnetic (FM) electrodes are used to enhance the electroluminescence intensity of the OLED through a magnetic control of the spin polarization of the injected carriers. The major difficulty is that the driving voltage of an OLED device exceeds a few volts, while spin injection in organic materials is only efficient at low voltages. The fabrication of a spin-OLED that uses a conjugated polymer as bipolar spin collector layer and ferromagnetic electrodes is reported here. Through a careful engineering of the organic/…
