Our research is focused on the design and synthesis of different nanostructures for solar water splitting. Within the group, we are currently investigating several different synthesis procedures (e.g. electrodeposition, anodization, electrospinning, surfactant-driven self-assembled soft templates, co-evaporation and atomic layer deposition) in order to obtain optimized nanostructures of several different materials (e.g. MOFs, Cu2O, CuBi2O4, BiVO4, Si, CuGaSe2/CuGa3Se5, g-C3N4 and CoP). Furthermore, next to the standard structural characterization techniques like SEM and XRD, we are performing photoelectrochemical (PEC) and gas chromatography (GC) measurements (and a combination of the two) for the functional characterization of our photo-active samples. In addition, we are also using techniques like (Photo-)Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy ((P)EIS) in order to understand the physical phenomena that take place in our semiconductor materials and nanostructures.Profil Service
