Martin Presselt

Martin Presselt is a researcher at the Leibniz Institute of Photonic Technology (IPHT), focusing on Photonics and Quantum Detection. He leads the working group on Organic Thin Films and Interfaces, exploring applications in energy transfer, sensing, and material stability.

• Research Themes: Interfacial engineering, electrochemical sensors, solar cell longevity, and supramolecular design.
• Notable Collaborations: Sarah Jasmin Finkelmeyer, Benjamin Dietzek-Ivanšić, Ksenija Glusac, Sylvestre Bonnet.

His recent work includes defect-free anisotropic membranes via plasticizers (Journal of Colloid and Interface Science, 2025), optical property tuning through intermolecular interactions (Chemistry-A European Journal, 2025), and calcium-sensitive TTA upconversion systems (Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters, 2024). He investigates graphene nanoribbon electrochemistry (JACS, 2024) and amphiphilic additives for solar cells (ACS Applied Electronic Materials, 2024).

He contributes to cross-disciplinary perspectives on weak interactions (PCCP, 2023) and develops bifacial dye membranes for photocatalysis (Advanced Materials, 2023). His studies combine experimental and computational approaches, addressing challenges in material longevity and functional design.
