Laboratory

Spectroscopic studies of photocatalytic and electrocatalytic reactions 

Entity:

Time-resolved spectroscopic analysis of charge transfer processes occurring during photo- or electrocatalysis. Observations by time-resolved absorption spectroscopy on the scale of nanoseconds to seconds facilitate the identification of the causes of the loss of efficiency of catalytic systems. The available equipment allows sizing under operating conditions. 

Challenges met

Catalytic systems that are not very efficient. 

Scope of application

Chemical industry – identification of processes that detract from the efficiency of photo- and electrocatalytic systems.
