Matthias Meier

Dr. Matthias Meier is a Researcher in Computational Materials Physics at the Faculty of Physics. His work focuses on catalysis, material science, and single-atom catalysts, employing advanced computational and experimental techniques to study surface reactions and material properties.

Research interests span catalysis, material science, surface physics, and computational modeling, with emphasis on single-atom catalysts, oxide surfaces, and reaction mechanisms. Key areas include polaron effects in catalysis, surface reconstruction phenomena, and adsorption dynamics.

Recent publications demonstrate trends in atomic-scale catalyst design, surface characterization of metal oxides, and computational studies of interfacial phenomena. Work consistently integrates spectroscopy, molecular dynamics, and surface science techniques to explore catalytic processes and material behaviors.

Currently leads the project 'Advances in Single-Atom-Polaron Catalysis' (2024-2028), investigating novel catalytic systems.
