These systems enable dual-purpose conversion: producing green hydrogen while transforming greenhouse gases into valuable chemicals. Although externally applied fields (magnetic, electric, strain) enhance catalytic efficiency via charge transfer optimization and adsorption energy tuning, the atomic-scale mechanisms governing field-coupled reactions remain unclear.<\/p>\n We focus on designing field-responsive catalysts by engineering active sites via electron spin control and ferroelectric domain modulation. Combining operando techniques (XAS, Raman, TEM) with multiscale simulations, we decode how fields regulate reaction barriers and intermediate adsorption\/desorption at electronic\/atomic scales. A breakthrough innovation involves scaling electrolyzers from lab prototypes to industrial flow cells sustaining working current densities >1 A\/cm\u00b2 while maintaining selectivity. By establishing dynamic structure-activity relationships under operational conditions, we bridge fundamental mechanisms with reactor engineering challenges.<\/p>\n Team<\/strong> [\/et_pb_toggle][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.3″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text admin_label=”Schlagw\u00f6rter Themen” _builder_version=”4.27.3″ _dynamic_attributes=”content” _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]@ET-DC@eyJkeW5hbWljIjp0cnVlLCJjb250ZW50IjoiY3VzdG9tX21ldGFfc2NobGFnd29lcnRlcl9zaG9ydGNvZGUiLCJzZXR0aW5ncyI6eyJiZWZvcmUiOiIiLCJhZnRlciI6IiIsImVuYWJsZV9odG1sIjoib2ZmIn19@[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ admin_label=”Tab section” module_class=”relaunch tab-section” _builder_version=”4.27.3″ _module_preset=”default” transform_scale_tablet=”” transform_scale_phone=”” transform_scale_last_edited=”on|tablet” transform_translate_tablet=”” transform_translate_phone=”” transform_translate_last_edited=”on|tablet” transform_translate_linked_tablet=”off” transform_rotate_tablet=”” transform_rotate_phone=”” transform_rotate_last_edited=”on|tablet” transform_skew_tablet=”” transform_skew_phone=”” transform_skew_last_edited=”on|tablet” transform_origin_tablet=”” transform_origin_phone=”” transform_origin_last_edited=”on|tablet” transform_styles_last_edited=”on|tablet” custom_margin=”||0px||false|false” custom_margin_tablet=”1px||||false|false” custom_margin_phone=”||||false|false” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|desktop” custom_padding=”||0px||false|false” transform_styles_tablet=”” transform_styles_phone=”” border_width_bottom=”2px” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row use_custom_gutter=”on” gutter_width=”2″ make_equal=”on” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|desktop” _builder_version=”4.27.3″ _module_preset=”default” width=”96%” width_tablet=”90%” width_phone=”90%” width_last_edited=”on|desktop” max_width=”1440px” module_alignment=”center” custom_margin=”||||false|false” custom_padding=”||||false|false” custom_padding_tablet=”||||false|false” custom_padding_phone=”||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.27.3″ _module_preset=”default” background_enable_color=”off” custom_padding=”|0rem||0rem|false|false” custom_padding_tablet=”3rem|2rem|2rem|2rem|false|false” custom_padding_phone=”3rem|2rem|2rem|2rem|false|false” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|tablet” border_radii=”on|18px|18px|18px|18px” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_css_main_element_last_edited=”on|tablet”][et_pb_tabs _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″][et_pb_tab title=”Projects” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n <\/p>\n [\/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=”Publications” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n <\/p> [\/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=”Events” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”||||false|false” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n Here you can find all the events where you can meet our research team.
