Gerhard Ertl Lecture & Award

Gerhard Ertl Lecture & Award

The Ertl Lecture Award was established in 2008 by the three Berlin universities (Humboldt University, Technical University and Free University) and the Fritz Haber Institute of the Max Planck Society and is awarded once a year. It commemorates former FHI Director Gerhard Ertl's Nobel Prize in Chemistry, which he received in 2007. The prize honours outstanding personalities and researchers in the field of catalysis where Ertl carried out exceptional research for many decades. The prize, sponsored by BASF, includes a one-week research stay at the participating Berlin institutions and a keynote lecture. The winner is typically announced in Spring, the lecture takes place around the December 10th, the anniversary of Ertl's Nobel Prize reception.

Location: HZB Adlerhof Magnusstrasse 2, 12489 Berlin

Microwave absorption: Operando EPR and MCPT as tools to characterize heterogeneous gas phase catalysts

CatLab Lectures 2023/2024
It is well established that many heterogeneous catalysts encounter substantial changes of their properties if comparing the catalyst under turn-over conditions with those found ex-situ. These changes encompass not only structural but also electronic properties rendering a detailed characterization still challenging. A variety of characterization techniques have been developed in recent years toinvestigatecatalytic systems under operando conditions. In this respect it is important to realize that none of these methods allows to obtain a complete picture which requires on the one hand the combination of different techniques and on the other hand knowledge about available techniques and their potential use and their limitations.
