Oriented growth and oriented transport of ions in aligned pores (A03)

• Subject Area: Solid State and Surface Chemistry, Material Synthesis
• Term: since 2023
• Project identifier: Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 492723217

In the project (Marschall/Schenk), 2D hexagonally ordered, vertically aligned pore systems based on SiO2 are used to systematically study the transport characteristics of ionic carriers in these highly anisotropic channels. Measurements of the proton transport and the catalytic activity of the 1D Co3O4 electrocatalyst materials produced therein will be fed back to the synthesis of the pore structures with the aim of investigating their influence on the transport of the respective ions.
