Notice

If you like our research and want to be a future PhD student in our group, please do not hesitate to contact us at any time or check current job offers (open positions).

Currently, we are happy to welcome new PhD students in these research areas:

  • Sodium-ion-batteries 
  • Electrocatalysis (Nitrogen reduction, CO2 reduction) 
  • Porous (carbon)materials: CO2 capture, Gas separation, H2 storage  

At any time we are pleased to host students for a bachelor or master thesis (topics). Please do not hesitate to contact us.

If our PhD students need support, we are also looking for motivated and qualified student assistants. 

A first outline of our research topics can be found on our homepage (topics).

    Hydrogen storage in carbons - new BMBF project "WaNaWa" We will investigate an innovative concept to store hydrogen in wetted carbons at moderate pressures/temperatures. The project which is funded with 2.13 m € combines experts from FSU Jena (von Domaros, Oschatz), Ruhr University Bochum (Borchardt) and Fraunhofer IKTS.

    First publication for Sofiia! Congrats to Sofiia! In her publication, she could reveal the impact of macropores in hard carbons using a sacrificial template to deliberately alter the electrochemical performance in sodium-ion batteries.

Research Overview

Aktivierung von Stickstoff in räumlich beschränkten Kavitäten
(Electro)catalysis
Our group deals with the development of novel catalyst systems for multiple applications, e.g. the electrocatalytic reduction of nitrogen. In particular, we try to gain an holistic picture of the underlying mechanisms on different length scales, that means from the catalysts towards the electrode and to the whole reactor.
