📢 Happy to share our News & View article in Nature Catalysis! We go back to the origin of vapour-phase synthesis methods, such as ALD, to tailor heterogeneous catalysts. Also, we provide our vision on future directions in the field of catalysis. Enjoy! nature.com/articles/s4192…

📢 Feel free to browse our recent News & View article in Nature Catalysis on 'Catalysts made from vapour'! We go back to the origin of vapour-phase fabrication methods for heterogeneous catalysts, and provide our vision on future developments. Enjoy! nature.com/articles/s4192…

A new addition to the ALD-cartoons-evolving-file! docs.google.com/presentation/d… Thanks to the new #ALDep catalysis view from @cocoonughent @matthiasfilez nature.com/articles/s4192…

📢Paper alert! In vacuo XPS supports the development of vertical GaN devices. Read the most recent publication of our colleague Sofie S.T. Vandenbroucke (CoCooN). Thanks to the great collaboration within the YESvGaN project.

🎓Jonas Keukelier became Dr. Keukelier! Jonas successfully defended his PhD on ‘Chalcogenide thin films and their application in threshold switching selector devices'.  Congratulations Dr. Keukelier, and all the best with your future career! His work: biblio.ugent.be/person/2AE1704…

Former CoCooN member Nithin Poonkottil (Nithin Poonkottil) contributed to the '35 Voices from Chemistry of Materials' (Chemistry of Materials) who highlight the multigenerational nature of research teams. Read & share Nithin's experience at CoCooN! 👇 pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

Online now: Advancing beyond Sabatier: Strategies for dynamic synthetic catalysis dlvr.it/T3bxly

a great highlight from Filez et al. on our 'wobbly' catalysis and @pauldauenhauer & co's catalytic resonance

📢 In our Chem article (Chem), we unite work of Dave Leigh and @pauldauenhauer to augment catalytic reaction rates beyond classic limits by dynamic catalysis, and link it to the behavior of enzymes. Matthias Filez Jolien Dendooven Roeffaers Lab cell.com/chem/fulltext/…

Nanoparticle sintering is a prime cause of catalyst deactivation. In our Nanoscale journal family paper, we deposit sub-monolayer MgO thin films on the surface of Pt nanoparticles. This enable delaying sintering while keeping the surface sites free for reaction. pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

Well done, today it was nothing to with the luck, solid knowledge and interesting discussions with Heta Nieminen and Jolien Dendooven helda.helsinki.fi/items/15fab6be… HelsinkiALD

Warm-up - checking the tools before dissertation.

ICYMI! Jolien Dendooven and co-workers at CoCooN have shown controlled Pt nanoparticle sintering by sub-monolayer MgO ALD thin films - find out more in their latest article in Nanoscale! 👇 pubs.rsc.org/en/Content/Art…

Have a look at our just published manuscript in Inorganic Chemistry about inter- and intramolecular H-bonding and interdigitation in the organic layer of 2D #perovskite. Thanks to all collaborators from Kristof Van Hecke - XStruct CoCooN and the CMN group at UMons! pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

📢Our review AIP Publishing on 'Atomic layer deposition of metal phosphates' is now freely available for two weeks! Grab your chance to dive into the world of metal phosphates 👇🙂 pubs.aip.org/aip/apr/articl…

📢New paper from CoCooN ALD processes are used to tune the surface chemical composition of Ni-Fe mixed metal phosphate films as OER catalysts. Read more in our recently published paper: iopscience.iop.org/article/10.108…

Yesterday, Juan Santo-Domingo Peñaranda successfully defended his PhD entitled 'Thinking outside the box : non-standard methods for atomic/molecular layer deposition' Find more info on his work here: research.ugent.be/web/person/jua… Congrats Dr. Santo-Domingo Peñaranda!
