معرفی
Prof. Dr. Guido Kickelbick is a faculty member in the Department of Chemistry at the Universität des Saarlandes, within the Faculty of Natural Sciences and Technology. He holds the position of Professor of Inorganic Solid State Chemistry and leads an active research group focused on hybrid materials, nanocomposites, and sustainable synthesis methods.
His research interests include inorganic-organic hybrid materials, surface-functionalized nanoparticles, sol-gel chemistry, mechanochemical synthesis, and self-healing materials. His group develops innovative materials with tailored interfaces, emphasizing sustainability through solvent-free processes, rare-earth-free optoelectronic materials, and energy-efficient continuous production methods.
The recent publications highlight a strong trend in functional hybrid materials, particularly for energy storage, optoelectronics, and self-healing systems. Key themes include mechanochemical synthesis of nanomaterials, platinum-free curing of siloxanes, and the design of luminescent solar concentrators. These works reflect an interdisciplinary approach combining inorganic, polymer, and materials chemistry.

- Focus on sustainable and scalable synthesis techniques
Prof. Kickelbick has not received any explicitly mentioned scientific awards in the provided text. He advises several students, including Stefan Engel, Elias Gießelmann, and Oliver Janka, and collaborates on interdisciplinary projects involving elemental analysis and speciation. His lab employs advanced characterization techniques such as XRD, NMR, spectroscopy, and electron microscopy. The group is also involved in developing continuous flow processes and mechanochemical methods for industrial scalability.
Associated research units include the WASTe group (elemental analysis) and a junior research group led by PD Dr. André Schäfer. The team works on encapsulation systems for LEDs, self-healing polymers, and functional nanoparticles, contributing to both fundamental science and applied technology.
