Research Topics

  • surface chemistry
  • heterogeneous catalysis
  • electrochemistry / electrocatalysis
  • catalysis and electrocatalysis beween ideal and (close to) real fuel cell technology
  • new (model) catalysts
  • UHV and in-situ electrochemistry
  • studies on the microscopic mechanism of adsorption processes/surface reactions

Techniques and Instrumentation
