A knowledge-based approach towards developing materials for energy conversion and storage application requires a fast and direct feedback between sophisticated analytics and state-of-the-art material processing facilities. At the Energy Materials In-situ Laboratory Berlin (EMIL) we achieve this by coupling synchrotron-based X-ray characterization techniques (such as XPS, HAXPES, XRD, XES, XAS,...

Oral presentations
The development of CO2 valorisation strategies has become a crucial issue and represents a priority for the European Union, which is actively promoting international agreements to control climate change and different programmes for CO2 conversion. Currently, less than 1% of the total anthropogenic CO2 emissions (31.2 Gt/y) are recycled into chemicals or used in industrial applications. One of...

Oral presentations
Herein, the electronic and geometric structure of first row transition metal mediated C-H bond activation and C-X cross-coupling reactions, was directly probed using X-ray absorption spectroscopy. The experimental data was correlated with theoretical calculations in the hopes of better understanding the principal catalytic species, reactive intermediates, and their structure-function...

Oral presentations
We have used synchrotron based techniques (XAS, XPEEM, spin polarized UPS) to study the influence of the chirality on the magnetism, when a thin film of chiral molecules is adsorbed on a ferromagnetic layer. We have grown monolayer-thick films of 1,2-diphenyl-1,2-ethanediol (DPED), adsorbed in ultra-high vacuum on Fe and Co thin films. This molecule has two chiral centers and presents two...

Oral presentations
There is an increasing interest in heterostructures made from alternating layers of graphene and hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN), the latter being the optimal dielectric substrate for use in graphene based devices due to their similar structure. To fabricate graphene and h-BN ultrathin layers, we performed sequential evaporation of carbon and boron assisted with low energy nitrogen ions, using...
