Research

Our research focuses on transition metal complexes, organometallic compounds and materials based on these molecules. Their rich variety of structures and electronic states determines chemical, photochemical, optical and magnetic properties, all of interest for many modern applications. We apply a series of advanced spectroscopic methods, including luminescence, absorption and Raman measurements at ambient conditions and also at variable temperatures and pressures in our studies. Quantum-mechanical models provide a quantitative route to the analysis and understanding of the experimental observations, allowing us to discover guidelines for the research of systems with optimized properties.
