In November 2021, Prof. Nicolas Vogel of the Institute of Particle Technology was awarded the “Lehrpreis der technischen Fakultät” (Teaching award of the Faculty of Engineering). According to the selection committee, the awards reflects the excellent student evaluations of the courses given by Prof....
The performance of TiO2 thin films as an electron transport layer (ETL) in perovskite solar cells depends on the composition, phase, and defects of the TiO2 layer. In the recently published paper in Nano Select (Wiley), Saman Hosseinpour (LFG) together with colleagues from i-MEET, HI ERN, and WW4-LK...
On Thursday (30.09.2021) Eric Görlitzer completed his PhD on “Chiral Plasmonic Nanostructures via Colloidal Templating - Chirale Plasmonische Nanostrukturen durch Kolloidale Oberflächenstrukturierung”, becoming the fourth PhD graduate from the Vogel Lab. We wish him success in his future endeavor.

On Monday (27.09.2021) Junwei completed his PhD on “Colloidal Clusters in Spherical Confinement”. Junwei was enrolled in the Elite Master’s Programme, Advanced Materials and Processes (MAP), from 2013 to 2013 and performed his PhD research under the supervision of Prof. Vogel (main supervisor) and P...
Satisfying the increased demand for materials with enhanced performance requires constant improvement in the properties of the existing materials. In this regard, very often, composite materials and coatings provide superior characteristics which are tunable to fit the requirements of specific appli...
Oil/water interfaces are omnipresent in our life. You can find them at the surface of cell membranes, in dairy and other food products, as well as in technological fields such as oil refinery and pharmaceutics. Single and double emulsions are also emerging as means for smart drug delivery in which t...
Nature is full of surprises and over >million years of evolution living organisms have found the absolute best ways of survival.
In this work, Saman and his colleagues examined the mechano-bactericidal properties of wing surfaces of two different Psalmocharias cicada species, using AFM, SEM, a...
The Institute of Particle Technology successfully placed two projects within the new priority program „Creation of Synergies in Tailor-made Mixtures of Heterogeneous Powders: Hetero Aggregations of Particulate Systems and Their Properties” (SPP 2289).
The program is funded by the German Research ...
On Tuesday (03.08.2021) Herbert completed his PhD on "Process and Product Development of Functional Supraparticles for Biomedical Additive Manufacturing", becoming the second PhD graduate from the Vogel Lab. We wish him success in his future endeavor.
High energy density lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are essential parts of our modern society. Nevertheless, the instability of the anode and the solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) in LIBs impediments the application of Si anodes in LIBs. In this work, Saman Hosseinpour and his colleagues from Sichuan ...
