DESIGNING MATERIALS AND ELECTROLYTES FOR ENERGY
We study complex phenomena in solids and liquids and at their electrified interfaces.
We apply the fundamental knowledge that we gained to developing new energy systems that can deliver improved performance, cost, efficiency, and safety.
We target minimizing environmental footprint when designing energy systems.
RECENT NEWS
Great representation of our team at ISE conference in Mainz by Sonja, Katharina, Manuel and Julita!
Julita has been awarded BEST POSTER prize at 76th Annual Meeting of the ISE for 'Optimizing Aquous Zn Metal Batteries: Understanding Co-Salts Effects on Zn2+ Transference and Deposition'.
18.09.2025| In our newest JACS paper, we reveal how modified electrolyte structure in water-in-salt electrolytes results in delayed onset of HER
In our new ACS Nano manuscript we are shedding light on transition metal intercalation into MXenes!
New group picture! Taken right after Maria's tenure lecture!
In our recent Advanced Materials manuscript we reveal the role of Zn-ion transport on stability of Zn metal anodes.
Katharina receives the MECAREACT Poster Prize. Congratulations!
Our perspective on "The role of Anions and Additives in Electrochemical CO2 Reduction" in Current Opinion in Electrochemistry is now online!
Anna is awarded the prestigious Pioneer Fellowship! Big congratulations!
ACS Open Science Conversations with Prof. Maria Lukatskaya out now
Luis Kitsu joins the group as a Postdoctoral Researcher. Welcome, Luis!
Peter Gödtel joins the group as a Postdoctoral Researcher. Welcome, Peter!
We are hiring! We are looking for a postdoctoral researcher in Electrocatalysis.
Joseph Scapin joins the group as a PhD Student. Welcome, Joseph!
Big congratulations to Julita for doing an amazing job in representing our lab at the Docs@MAVT event and winning the award!
