Polyelemental compounds with dimensions in the nanosized regime are desirable in a large variety of applications, yet their synthesis remains a general challenge in chemistry. One of the major bottlenecks to obtaining multinary systems is the complexity of ...
The aim of this thesis is to contribute to the development of analysis methods that enable an improved investigation of the CO2 hydrogenation reaction such as quantitative mass spectrometry and infrared thermography. Furthermore, the contribution is in the ...
Supramolecular assemblies of cyanine dye molecules formed by weak van der Waals forces have gained immense attention for their distinct optical properties (high extinction coefficient, narrow absorption and photoluminescence line-width and small Stokes shi ...
In this thesis, we focus on investigating the shape and size evolution of colloidal CdSe nanomaterials in the presence of carboxylate and alkylamine surface ligands. By elaborating the combination of carboxylates and alkylamines with different hydrocarbon ...
Models of chemical reaction systems can be complex as they need to include information regarding the reactions and the mass and heat transfers. The commonly used state variables, namely, concentrations and temperatures, express the interplay between many p ...
In this thesis we present the design of two setups to study low-energy collisions between neutral species: an electron velocity map imaging for chemi-ionisation reactions and a merged electrostatic guide for polar molecules scattering. In the past few year ...
Photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting devices are envisioned to play a key role in the societal transition towards sustainable energy sources. In this context, multinary metal oxide semiconductors are the most promising candidates for the role of phot ...
The electrochemical CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR) is envisioned to play a significant role in achieving carbon neutrality while contributing to storing renewable energies. Cu-based materials are among the most promising electrocatalysts. However, 16 diffe ...
Amorphous solids are structurally disordered. They are very common and include glasses, colloids, and granular materials, but are far less understood than crystalline solids. Key aspects of these materials are controlled by the presence of excitations in w ...
Selenium (Se) nanowires have generated much interest both for the fundamental understanding of crystal formation and growth and for technological applications in optoelectronics, imaging, piezoelectricity, catalysis, and energy harvesting and storage. Seve ...
