Claus Feldmann
Karlsruhe Institute of Technology
Biography
Claus Feldmann studied chemistry at the University of Bonn (Germany) and remained there to do his doctorate in solid-state chemistry under Martin Jansen (in 1994). After post-doctoral studies with Hans-Georg von Schnering at the Max Planck Institute of Solid-State Research, Stuttgart (Germany), he moved to industry (1995-2003). He joined the Philips Research Laboratories (Germany/The Netherlands), where he was engaged in luminescent materials. Simultaneously, he habilitated at the RWTH Aachen (Germany) on nanomaterials (2003). In 2003, he was also appointed at the University of Karlsruhe, the present Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT). His research interests address solid-state chemistry and functional nanomaterials. Specifically, this includes polyhalides, clusters and carbonyls, metal and metal nitride nanoparticles as well as photocatalysts, hollow nanospheres and hybrid materials for imaging and drug delivery.
