Chair of Solid State Physics
Welcome to the internet pages of the Chair of Solid State Physics at the Friedrich-Alexander-University Erlangen-Nuremberg in Germany.
Our research is focused on surface physics with special interest in surface structure analysis, adsorbates on surfaces, electronic properties and electron dynamics at surfaces.
Combining the expertise of all groups at the chair of solid state physics we unraveled the structural and electronic properties of CuTe chains grown on Cu(111).
These chains form after the deposition of one-third of a monolayer of Te and a subsequent annealing step. They are extremely well ordere... Continue
By employing Scanning Tunneling Microscopy (STM) and Density Functional Theory (DFT) we investigated the behaviour of two different porphyrins on ultra thin cobalt oxide films grown on an iridium single crystal.
The two molecules depciced on the image differ in terms of their anchoring points to ... Continue
Congratulations to Rebecca Helmreich!
She successfully defended her PhD-Theses on last Friday. The defense was online and non-public due to the current corona regulations. Rebecca managed it the situation very well despite of all extra difficulties. Sadly, the traditional ceremony could not take ... Continue
Daniel’s “Research Update”, a form of mini review, summarizes the progress made in the field, and in particular the work performed in the Fauster and Niesner group in recent years. The article has been published and designated “Editor’s Pick” by APL Materials.
