Prof. Dr. Stephan Förster serves as Head of the Institute JCNS-1: Neutron Scattering and Soft Matter at the Research Center Jülich. His research focuses on advanced materials characterization using neutron scattering techniques, with particular emphasis on soft matter systems, polymer dynamics, and nanoparticle assemblies. He leads a team advancing understanding of complex materials for energy, biomedical, and engineering applications.
Research interests include polymer electrolytes for batteries, biomimetic systems, and nanocomposite materials. His work bridges fundamental physics and applied materials science, leveraging neutron scattering to uncover structure-property relationships. Recent projects explore sulfur-resistant catalytic materials, drug delivery systems via polyelectrolyte complexes, and 3D bioprinting of microgel constructs.
Scientific contributions span over 50 publications since 2018, emphasizing interdisciplinary approaches. Advising and grants are not explicitly detailed in the text, though his leadership role indicates active mentorship. The JCNS-1 laboratory specializes in neutron scattering instrumentation, including the upcoming SKADI instrument at the European Spallation Source.
