Novel Catalyst Design (YIG)

Research Topics

A special concern is to extend the technical lifespan of our catalysts. We work on new synthesis methods to establish and automate the production of stable, active, and cost-efficient catalysts. Our research is supported by fundamental studies on the growth mechanisms and the subsequent development of new materials. Innovative, automated characterization techniques are used to evaluate the catalyst’s performance. This enables the examination of numerous materials in a short time and thus accelerates the discovery of new materials. The corresponding reaction mechanisms that are essential for understanding the underlying processes are examined.

We attach great importance to interdisciplinarity and internationality within our research group to be highly competitive nationally and internationally.
