Research

Some of our recent research topics and projects can be found below. Some of our experimental techniques can be accessed above. Please be aware that both lists are incomplete.

Spectroscopic ellipsometry lab

Spectroscopic ellipsometry is a powerful experimental method which is able to find out about the complex dielectric function of any material. 

PL lab

The photoluminescence lab is located within the MSZ of the Faculty of Natural Sciences. We are specialized on the investigation of semiconductors in the ultraviolet.

Raman lab

Raman spectroscopy is a technique to investigate oscillations within materials. These oscillations are called phonons and are typical for a given material.

Tauc plot
Tauc-Plot

Is it a good idea to use a Tauc plot to determine the band gap of a semiconductor? - No. If you are considering to use a so-called Tauc plot to determine a band gap value, please think about the following very brief points.
