Jörg Libuda

Jörg Libuda is a Professor at the Chair of Interface Research and Catalysis, Friedrich-Alexander-University Erlangen-Nürnberg. His work bridges materials chemistry, electrocatalysis, and molecular solar thermal systems, focusing on solid catalysts with ionic liquid layers (SCILLs), atomic layer deposition, and model catalyst systems.

• Research Areas: Catalysis, Ionic Liquids, Surface Science, Energy Storage, Nanoparticle Stability

His 2025–2024 publications analyze trimetallic PtNiMo/C catalysts, molecular solar thermal systems with electroswitchable catalysis, and supraparticle catalysts for ultralow noble metal loadings. Key trends include ionic liquid modifiers to enhance electrocatalytic selectivity, atomic layer deposition on oxide surfaces, and metal-support interactions in Pd-Rh catalysts. No explicit scientific awards are listed in the provided text. His group investigates model electrocatalysts under ambient-pressure conditions, redox-mediated bond cleavage, and CO permeability in ionic liquid films. The summary underscores his contributions to energy conversion, catalyst stabilization, and surface molecular engineering.
