New bachelor students
We welcome our new bachelor students Laura Lamkowski and Jean-Pierré Glauber who will perform their bachelor theses in our research group within the summer term.Laura will focus on the synthesis and characterization of precursors for transition metal containing thin films. Jean-Pierré will work on the synthesis and evaluation of rare-earth precursors applicable in MOCVD processes.
