Staff members with discipline Physics, Atomic, Molecular & Chemical
Academia develops at the interface of different fields. This is one reason why the University of Groningen is home to a wide range of fields, each with a great number of subject specialists. The overview below, which is based on a standard categorization of fields, will help you find the right expert for each field. If you cannot find the expert you are looking for in this list, try searching via a related field or faculty; you may find him or her there.
I use computers to study science. I use and write software that model chemical interactions, light-matter interactions and particles behaviour in fluids. I apply physics principles along with computational methods to propose solutions to scientific problems.

Ion trapping, laser spectroscopy, antihydrogen.
I am searching for subtle differences between matter and antimatter, to explain why our universe seems to only consist of matter. At CERN, I participate in the ALPHA antihydrogen collaboration, where we synthesise, trap, and laser cool antihydrogen. We then perform precision laser and microwave spectroscopy to measure it's energy levels, or simply drop it to measure it's gravitational interaction with the Earth.
At VSI, I am setting up an experiment to make (regular) hydrogen based on photodissociation of the BaH+ molecular ion. Such a source would be compatible with ALPHA, and would enable a direct comparison between hydrogen and antihydrogen (i.e. both species in the same trap, at the same time, seeing the same laser). Such a measurement would be insensitive to systematic shifts, and should result in a relative comparison between hydrogen and antihydrogen that is more accurate than hydrogen can be measured alone.
If you are interested in doing an experimental or computational bachelors/masters project on ion trapping, laser cooling, or molecular photodissociation, please contact me.

I obtained a Master's degree in Experimental Physics (focus on optical spectroscopy) from the University of Bayreuth, Germany. Currently, I'm working towards a PhD degree in the group of Prof. Hildner at the University of Groningen.
Employing a wide array of spectroscopic techniques, we seek to unravel how intermolecular order influences the optical and electronic properties of conjugated polymers. Find out more about our research by visiting the groups homepage (linked below).
