1. Photocatalysis beyond conventional precious metal complexes
Abstract : Precious metals, e.g. Ru and Ir, are expensive, scarce and non-renewable resources. As oppose to many renewable resources, these cannot be deliberately produced wherever one wishes. READ MORE

2. Functionalized mesoporous carbons as non-precious metal fuel cell catalysts
Abstract : Fuel cells allow for clean and efficient chemical to electrical energy conversion. However, their high price significantly limits the market viability of the technology. This is to a large part due to the high cost of the precious metals used in most fuel cell catalysts. READ MORE

3. Carbenes: The Gathering : Photophysics of Transition Metal Carbene Complexes
Abstract : This thesis explores the photophysics of some transition-metal complexes (TMCs) which utilize N-heterocyclic carbenes as ligands. After a historical interlude which traces the development of the broader field of transition metal complexes and their photophysical investigations, there is an overview of theoretical concepts and the spectroscopic methods employed.
