The focus of the group is biobased materials for different applications.

Molecular computer simulations. All material things around us (and we ourselves) consist of molecules. Molecules consist of atoms, atoms consist of electrons and atomic nuclei. Behavior of all these small parts of materia is determined by the fundamental laws of quantum mechanics.

Our research group is interested in the synthesis, structure determination and applications of crystalline materials.

We use modelling and machine learning to understand ionization processes in electrospray (ESI) and developing semi-quantitative non-targeted analysis methodology.

Our research focuses on the development of efficient and selective homogeneous and heterogeneous catalytic reactions for the construction of carbon-carbon and carbon-heteroatom bonds, with application to the late-stage functionalization of complex organic molecules.

Our research is focused at development of sustainable organic synthesis through the use of hypervalent iodine chemistry.

Our research focus is sustainable fuel production, especially hydrogen.

Quantitative structure characterization is important to materials research, in particular in nanoscience and nanotechnology

We have synthesized and characterized new metal hydrides aiming at improving solid-state hydrogen storage over several years.

Zeglio´s group focuses on organic bioelectronics. Her Team is driven by the need for materials with the properties needed for device function and that better integrate into life and the environment.

We use quantum chemical methods to study reaction mechanisms of both homogeneous and enzymatic catalysis.

Solid state inorganic chemistry involved in synthesising compounds and studying their crystal structures as well as their fundamental properties. Very often the compounds of interest have various energy related applications.

Our research group focuses on crystal engineering and structure-property relationships in a range of coordination polymers, often metal-cyanide frameworks.

Knowing the 3D atomic structures of materials and biomolecules is crucial for understanding their functions. X-ray diffraction is currently the most important technique for determination of 3D atomic structures, but requires large crystals which are often difficult to obtain

My current research focus is on developing methods for chemical characterization of the organic composition of particulate matter which encompasses coupled chromatographic techniques for target analysis of polycyclic aromatic compounds (PACs), and nontarget analytical workflows using high-resolution mass spectrometry.

An important part of the research is focused on the use of heterogeneous catalysts where the catalytic units (metal and / or enzyme) are immobilized on different types of support materials such as mesoporous silica materials or microcrystalline cellulose.

Our mission is to design, create and investigate broadly defined functional polymers and carbons, particularly in a well-structured (e.g., colloidal or porous) form, via simple chemistry and processing.

The team’s main focus is to valorize biobased residues and design of circular products.

The main interest of the Szabó group is development of selective synthesis using transition-metal catalysis and organocatalysis targeting mainly fluorine and boron containing organic molecules.

The groups research activities span the academic disciplines of materials science and applied surface and colloid science with a focus on sustainable materials.

Research in the Ilag lab is interdisciplinary and span the areas of biophysics, chemical biology, analytical chemistry and environmental science.

We focus on developing inorganic electrocatalysts for water splitting, especially for the oxygen evolution reaction as the hydrogen reduction reaction is easier to catalyze.

Solid-state NMR spectroscopy, molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Our recent work is focussed on establishing structure-composition-property relationships of disordered materials:

Research interests involve 2D materials, polyelectrolyte, conductive polymer and their applications in the fields of electrochemistry energy storage and smart devices.

The group develops lignin-based functional materials for sustainable energy and environmental applications.

Our research revolves around the study of microfluidic lab-on-a-chip devices, which allow precise handling of liquids at microscopic scales.

The main focus is currently on adsorbents for separation or reduction of carbon dioxide, and on carbon materials derived by hydrothermal carbonization. A multipronged approach is applied that includes among other tools molecular spectroscopy.

Stereoselective synthesis is a crucial process in organic chemistry and is extremely important in the field of pharmaceuticals, as the different enantiomers or diastereomers of a molecule often have different biological activity.

Catalysis for sustainable organic chemistry and materials science.

Our research circles around electron microscopy, electron diffraction and its applications to the structural characterization of materials.

The group’s research area is inorganic solid state/materials chemistry with a strong focus on metallic and semimetallic materials, including hydrides, borides and carbides.

Our research is focused on the development of analytical methods and techniques enabling studies and measurements of compounds involved in skin sensitization (contact allergy).

The focus of the Zou group is image and diffraction-based methods and software for accurate atomic structure determination of unknown crystals.

We are an enthusiastic group in developing novel materials and advanced electron microscopy techniques.
