The broad research area of the present JRG is Materials Science and Engineering. More specifically, it aims at strengthening and broadening the numerous current collaborations between materials science and materials engineering in both institutions.
The originality of the present consortium is primarily that it encompasses both surface and bulk aspects since linking those two scales is crucial in the development of innovative materials. ...
Research activities in the group of "Theoretical Chemistry and Molecular Modelling" aim at linking domains of relevance in physical chemistry, chemical physics, and material research, such as:
- polymer physics and surfaces;
- electron structure theory of neutral and ionized molecules (anions, cations), clusters or radicals;
- advanced ionization spectroscopy (photoelectron spectroscopies [XPS, UPS, Synchrotron], Electron ...
The Department of Metallurgy and Materials Engineering (MTM: Metaalkunde en Toegepaste Materiaalkunde) is dedicated to both fundamental and application-oriented research in metals, ceramics, polymers, and in composite materials. Its strength lies in the multi-method approach at the levels of elaboration and processing, of characterization, and of evaluation of the functional behavior of materials. The aim is, starting from fundamental ...
