Atomically-precise engineering of catalytic materials

My research focuses on the development of catalytic materials with precisely controlled architectures to enable enhanced functionality. This requires the integration of advanced techniques to establish synthesis-structure-performance relationships over relevant scales with emphasis on the use of scalable preparation routes. Areas of expertise include the quantitative analysis of complex pore networks, the visualization of key characteristics of multi-component, shaped bodies, and the design of catalysts integrating supported atomic clusters. I co-lecture the Master course Catalysis Engineering and act as Program Advisor to the NCCR Catalysis.
