Welcome!
Welcome to the homepage of the research group “Inorganic Materials Chemistry” IMC of Prof. Dr. Anjana Devi.
Our group focuses on the development, synthesis and evaluation of high-performance precursors for vapor phase deposition processes namely chemical vapor deposition (CVD), atomic layer deposition (ALD) and molecular layer deposition (MLD).
We collaborate with scientists from various disciplines (Physics, Chemistry and Engineers) and our goal is to develop nanostructured materials for different applications ranging from microelectronics, sensors, dielectrics, barrier coatings, spintronics, optics, catalysis etc.

With Dennis Zywitzki, who has successfully defended his PhD thesis on Tuesday the 12th of October, we now have to say goodbye to another generation of Devi-Group PhD students. Dennis was giving an excellent presentation of his research on precursor and process develop-ment for cobalt ferrite (CFO) and nickel ferrite (NFO) films for the potential application in supercapacitors.
We wish him all the best.
It was a great opportunity to interconnect with the ALD community, meet our collaborators, old friends and get to know some new faces. We hope to see you all next year, maybe in the Ruhr-Area? Fingers crossed!

We will definitely miss Manuela Winter, our „Ms. X-ray“!
Thank you Manuela for all your support and great team work together with Anjana’s Kindergarten over the years!
More than 40 joint publications with the IMC group demonstrate the great team work and your excellent crystallography skills.
Wishing you all the best and ‘live long and prosper’!

European Network for Innovative and Advanced Epitaxy
We are very happy to announce that our IMC group has joined the “The EU-COST Action CA-20116 (2021-2025) OPERA: “European Network for Innovative and Advanced Epitaxy”. This is the 3rd EU-COST Action where IMC group was involved in the European-level co-operation and networking after, CA – CELINA – CM1301 (2013 -2017) and CA – HERALD- MP1402 (2014-2018). The cost action OPERA will promote the networking activities of expert groups within EU on epitaxial growth of materials focusing on semiconductors, oxides and 2D materials. Our group is very excited and look forward to the networking and collaborations with the OPERA group members.
