Hanna Maltanava, PhD, is a postdocoral reseacher at the University of Eastern Finland. She received her PhD in inorganic chemistry in 2015 from the Belarusian State University (BSU) in Minsk. Her current research interests are focused on the synthesis and study of nanostructured TiO2/Au for electrocatalytic application, the development of sensing materials based on the controlled release of active species encapsulated in polymeric or inorganic micro- and nanocapsules, and the investigation of 2D nanomaterials (graphene and Mxenes). Her expertise is in the electrochemistry and photoelectrochemistry of semiconductors and metals, the synthesis and characterization of metal nanoparticles and metal/semiconductor composites, and the preparation of multifunctional coatings. Total number of WOS publications: 16; h-index (Scopus): 6; h-index (Google Science): 8.
