Katalyse ist eine Schlüsseltechnologie der chemischen Industrie. Gezielte Verbesserungen an bekannten Katalysatoren und das Design neuartiger Katalysen können somit grundlegend dazu beitragen, Ressourcen optimal zu nutzen. Ansatzpunkt dafür im neuen Sonderforschungsbereich 1333 ist die dirigierende Wirkung synthetischer Poren. more

The “Chemistry meets Physics“ workshop at Schloss Ringberg is an interdisciplinary forum to foster exchange between experimentalists and theorists working in the fields of condensed matter science, with a dual focus on quantum materials and materials for energy. The meeting intends to not only provide a platform for discussing cutting edge research in those fields, but also to carve out current trends and concepts relevant to both chemists and physicists working at the materials interface. Therefore, speakers are encouraged to keep their talks reasonably general and to seize the synergies where chemistry and physics meet. Click more to see the confirmed speakers. more
