Inorganic chemistry with a focus on materials and energy

AG Lepple is working on the development and investigation of innovative high-performance ceramics for efficient energy conversion and storage.

Central focuses:

New ceramics for high-temperature applications that are stable over long periods in aggressive atmospheres
New ceramics for energy storage (electrode materials, ion conductors)
New ceramics for sustainable energy generation and catalysis

BMBF NanoMatFutur Networking Event, Berlin

14.02.-15.02.2024

In recent years, it has not been possible to organise a network meeting for the group leaders of the BMBF NanoMatFutur and BattFutur junior research groups due to the coronavirus pandemic. This year the time had finally come and we were able to present our projects to each other, exchange ideas and network and get to know the PtJ and VDI staff in person. The event took place at the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) not far from the Chancellery in Berlin.
