About the Project
The Emmy Noether project StoreLight develops nanostructured heterojunction electrodes for photobatteries – innovative devices that combine solar energy conversion and electrochemical storage in a single system. Our research focuses on hybrid perovskite–metal oxide composites to understand and control electronic and ionic transport processes under working conditions.
We combine advanced synthesis strategies with state-of-the-art characterization, including (in-situ & operando) solid-state NMR spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, and optical spectroscopy, to establish structure–property relationships. Ultimately, our goal is to design stable and efficient photoelectrodes for next-generation energy technologies and contribute to a sustainable energy future.
