My research group operates at the interface between materials science, nanofluidics, catalysis, nanoplasmonics and in situ spectroscopy, with a particular focus on sustainable energy-related materials and systems like metal-hydrogen interactions in nanoparticles and heterogeneous (photo)catalysts, as well as optical gas sensing. For that purpose we continuously develop and evolve our own methodologies for state-of-the-art nanofabrication and build our own customized research instrumentation. We also strive for continuously identifying and implementing strategies for the utilization and commercialization of our research results to cover the entire spectrum from fundamental research to applications that make a direct contribution to a sustainable society.
