Solid-state NMR spectroscopy is one of the most powerful techniques and a thriving field of methodological advances for atomic level characterization of materials, small molecules and biologic matter. In the Wisser solid-state NMR group at FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg, we take a close look at the surfaces and interfaces in modern, functional materials and catalysts. Chemistry happens at these interfaces, therefore we want to obtain a molecular understanding of structures and active centers and their impact on function and reactivity. We further develop methods for real time observation, under in situ and operando conditions, of chemical reactions and catalysis. Examples of our current research on Supported Ionic Liquid Phase catalysts, carbon-based materials and metal-organic frameworks will be presented. Our results highlight the significant influence of controlled supramolecular structuring on the optoelectronic properties of materials and provide valuable insights for the design of advanced photoenergy conversion systems.
