Our hearts and our minds are with Ukraine. We fully condemn the russian invasion of Ukraine and Russias blatant violation of international law. All members of our group outspokenly denounce the criminal acts of the aggressor and invading troops. In the post cold-war era of peace, civility and prosperity, every UN country must uphold the UN Charta and respect the territorial integrity of all other countries.  

We help every Ukrainian scientist in need for positions and hope to offer a safe haven for them and their families.  

Mrs. Rui Zhang has entered our group as a joint PhD student. Her main research interest is the water incorporation in geologically important glasses under extreme conditions in diamond anvils cells.  

We finished work on our new manuscript on metal super-hydrides at extreme conditions! In this work, we found, for the first time ever, a strongly diffusive hydrogen spin subsystem. This diffusive state of H leads to a dynamic and continuous desorption of hydrogen and a gradual decomposition of all synthesized hydrides back to their pre-cursor materials. For more information, check out our publications section.

After two years as a postdoctoral research fellow, Dr. Zhou leaves our group. We wish her all the best in her future career.

Dr. Rajesh Jana joined the ranks today as a new postdoctoral researcher. His research will be focused on the investigation of novel functional materials using high-pressure NMR. We wish him all the best and good results.  

Our group homepage is finally finished.
