- This significant paper is representative of Papakonstantinou’s research on synthesis of 2D materials by ionic liquid assisted grinding exfoliation and size selection by sequential centrifugation (DOI:10.1021/am5048202). It demonstrates for first time importance of electron rich MoS2 edges for accelerating hydrogen evolution reaction. The invention was patented (WO 2016/063036 Al) and licensed to 2D-Tech/Versarien ltd, which exploits the technology. The size selection sequential centrifugation approach was widely adopted by other research groups worldwide (called cascade centrifugation DOI: 10.1021/acsnano.5b07228). It led to invited Fellowship from the Royal Society of Chemistry and membership to beam time allocation panel of synchrotron radiation facility BESSY.
