New Materials WG 4 Member, Catalysis, LINXS Fellow

Andreas Stierle is professor for nanoscience at the University of Hamburg and leading scientist at DESY. He is also responsible for the organisation of the DESY nanolab as a user facility. His main focus is on the investigation of the structure and physical-chemical properties of nanoscale systems ranging from ultra-high vacuum to application-related environmental conditions, with the help of synchrotron radiation based methods. In addition to this, complementary laboratory examination methods of the DESY nanolab are used. The results gained deepen the fundamental understanding of gas, solid state or liquid-solid interfaces of nano materials which are used for anti-corrosion or in energy conversion processes.
