Research topic: Metal-Organic Framework Thin Films for Photoelectrochemical Solar Fuel Production

The field of photoelectrochemical production of solar fuels offers a promising avenue for addressing the energy demand while reducing dependence on fossil fuels. This approach involves converting solar energy into storable and transportable solar fuels (e.g. H2, CO). Thin films of light harvesting metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) on transparent conductive substrates provide an efficient platform for light absorption, charge transfer and catalysis enabling solar fuel generation. Therefore, my PhD project focuses on the fabrication and performance optimization of MOF/metal oxide electrode/molecular catalyst assemblies.
