WELCOME !
Current research projects are in the field of ocean surface chemistry, combustion chemistry and surface spectroscopy. Within the cluster of excellence "The Future Ocean", a new optical detection laboratory has been setup making available surface sensitive VSFG and NIR-cw-CRDS spectroscopy. VSFG is used to investigate the composition, structure, and reactivity of the organic nanolayer, which is prevalent at natural water-air interfaces. In the framework of SFB677 "Function by Switching" we also started to apply SFG techniques to solid/gas and solid/liquid interfacial systems. Other optical lab-based and field-deployable sensors are developed for isotope selective detection of CO2 and N2O and for monitoring biofilm formation. Additionally, time-resolved measurements are performed by UV laser absorption and frequency modulation spectroscopy in combination with a photolysis shock tube experiment. Present investigations are concerned with elementary reactions of NCN, a key radical for modeling NOx formation in hydrocarbon combustion. Reaction kinetics work is complemented by flow tube measurements (CRDS and MS detection) as well as detailed theoretical analysis based on quantum-chemical calculations.
