Research

Energy Materials unit

We conduct fundamental and application-inspired studies in the general area of thin-film materials for energy applications. Among others, we investigate thermoelectrics, ionic conductors for fuel-cell applications, MAX phases and hard coatings.

Sharpened chemical scissor paves the way for tailored nanomaterials

Using a “chemical scissor”, thin materials can be tailored even at atom level. This is shown in a study published in Science. The results pave the way for new materials for use in future sustainable energy production, energy storage and electronics.
