Dominic Caracciolo

My research interests have long been focused on electrochemistry and green energy. By joining SUNY Binghamton I am now focused on investigating multimetallic nanoparticle alloys and their applications in providing cheap and clean power for a variety of potential markets including drones, automobiles, fork lifts, and energy storage to name a few. Before I attended SUNY Binghamton I spent many years selling various electronics that range from phones to computers as well as act as a liaison between doctors, pharmacists, insurance companies and patients. I have worked with our local Incubator for new technology startups and am working on building a company that will provide nanocatalysts for fuel cell manufacturers and help bring our energy infrastructure closer to a sustainable and green environment.
