About

D. Korakakis is a leading researcher in advanced materials processing, with a primary focus on the synthesis and deposition of functional metal oxide films for optoelectronic and environmental applications. His work centers on bridging the gap between materials chemistry and scalable manufacturing, particularly through the development of hybrid inks and robotic deposition techniques. In his highly cited 2016 study, Korakakis investigated the robotic deposition of TiO₂ films on flexible substrates, establishing critical synthesis–processing–microstructure–photocatalytic relationships. This work demonstrated how solution-based, water-compatible inks could be used to produce high-performance TiO₂ coatings—a material prized for its semiconducting properties, nontoxicity, and chemical inertness—enabling applications in water purification and energy harvesting. With 27 citations, this paper has influenced subsequent research on scalable fabrication of photocatalytic surfaces. Korakakis’s contributions are notable for integrating materials science with manufacturing engineering, offering practical pathways for deploying TiO₂ in real-world environmental and energy systems. His research continues to advance the understanding of how processing parameters dictate final material performance, making him a key figure in the field of functional thin-film technologies.
