Prof. Dr. C. Heske
The research focus of the group is the development and application of modern spectroscopy methods (with soft and hard X-rays) to characterize the electronic and chemical properties of materials for energy conversion (e.g. thin film solar cells, fuel cells, hydrogen storage and nuclear fuel). The group uses a combination of synchrotron radiation and laboratory methods to study surfaces and interfaces. Prof. Heske is also a director of the Institute for Photon Science and Synchrotron Radiation (IPS) at KIT Campus North, and a professor in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas: UNLV
