‘Toen ik het in 2010 had over de materialen voor een energietransitie, werd er nog net niet gelachen’
Om windturbines en elektrische auto’s te bouwen, hebben we tonnen magneten nodig. Momenteel importeren we die voornamelijk uit China, waardoor Europa voor de energietransitie erg afhankelijk is van deze grootmacht. Daar moet verandering in komen, aldus Industrieel ecoloog René Kleijn. In het project…

Structure dependence of molecular reactions on surfaces
The research presented in this thesis makes use of small molecules (as H2 , D2 and O2 ) on well-defined single crystal surfaces (flat Pt(111), flat Cu(211) and curved Pt(111)) to elucidate the role of surface structure and degrees of freedom in the reactant in specific surface reactions.
