Welcome to our group page!

We are part of the PhotoConversion Materials Section in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at Vrije Universiteit, Amsterdam.

We are an interdisciplinary team of researchers from physics, chemistry and materials science backgrounds working together to understand and optimize light-matter interactions in excitonic materials for optoelectronic, photocatalytic, and sensing applications.
