Check out our new work on identification of #MOF phases and dynamics by THz Raman spectroscopy - great work by @krisgjorgjevikj.bsky.social et al. and many more follow ups to come. I am particularily fond of the non-AI grafical abstract! pubs.rsc.org/ma/article/d...

What is the molecule's point of view when it enters the pore of a COF? In a collaboration with the Hinderberger group we looked at the pore environments using EPR with spin probes. doi.org/10.1002/smll...
Our first dive into PFG NMR to analyse molecular transport in MOFs. Fantastic collaboration with Kristyna, Sofia and Hassan et al. pubs.acs.org/jpccck/artic...
We tackled this question on a series of model compounds by MD simulations and PFG NMR experiments. To make a long story short: If you attached active sidegroups to your pore surface you may suffer up to 95% decrease in molecular transport inside the pore network - your products might even get stuck.

We asked a fundamental question: How does pore functionalization impact the molecular transport in nanoporous MOFs? This question is particularly critical for any process that involves catalytic transformations inside a particle and thus a core topic in @crc1333.bsky.social .

Fantastic Celebration of the 2026 graduates from @uniulm.bsky.social in front of the Münster. Thrilled that we could send them off with a proper performance of the Prof-isorium choir and a unique look from behind the stage. If you are keen to throw your hat some day join us in Ulm! #Schwörwochenende
Last Week Janine Richter visited @uniulm.bsky.social and gave a fabulous talk on (semi)automated battery research. We had a fantastic time checking out research activities at POLiS and of course also taking a picture with traditional dry plate made from silver and sun!
I am sure this was an outstanding experience and the whole group is excited for @krisgjorgjevikj.bsky.social to have attended the 75th #LindauMeeting.
It took a few days to go through all of the pictures and let all the emotions settle.. I recently had the incredible oportunity to join a truly fascinating event, the jubilee 75th Lindau Nobel Laureate meeting. #LindauMeeting #LINO75 #WomenInSTEM
Not sure what to do with all the heat and tired of football? Give Box Lacrosse a try and watch the highly anticipated game of the 2026 European Championships of Ger against Cz tonight for free: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dvuq...
Yesterday we hosted @kjablonka.com at @uniulm.bsky.social and had a fantastic time! Besides discussing AI in Chemistry and MOFs he got his dry plate photo 📸 taken and a salt print made. His talk was amazing with many capabilities and limitations of existing LLMs for Chem. Goode bye IonenLotto...
Last week the one an only @furukawas.bsky.social visited @uniulm.bsky.social and gave a fantastic talk on cages, MOFs, and anything in-between. We got a bit confined in our discussions on dynamic frameworks and started a new tradition - Guest Portrait on dry plates with historical camera.
Thrilled we could contribute to this work with some Raman analysis by @krisgjorgjevikj.bsky.social (although there is not much to see in the THz regions...). Congrats to Robert and Lucas!
Our new Hot Paper 🔥 is out in @angewandtechemie.bsky.social: co-first authors Lucas G. Balzat and Robert Calaminus use #BayesianOptimization to boost Li7SiPS8 ionic conductivity while lowering synthesis temperature and time. #SolidElectrolytes doi.org/10.1002/anie...
See our first work in context of Research Data Management. Thanks for the nice collaboration in the @crc1333.bsky.social consortium and to @esengulciftci.bsky.social for her efforts in reproducible MOF synthesis.
New paper out! Have you ever been irritated by enigmatic paragraphs of a MOF synthesis procedure or had difficulties in preparing a clean data set for machine learning? We demonstrated efficient data management of MOF synthesis data using JSON schema tools. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/...

Last night we participated at the Long night of science at @uniulm.bsky.social. We demonstrated a view of the world in UV light and did some 19th century #dryplate photographs with gear from that time. This was fun and we will be back!
Thrilled to participate with a booth and talk and look forward to inspire the public and future students!

Don't forget that on Thursday 2pm CET, we are hosting a short webinar to present our new search match tool for phase identification using XRPD. The tool will be online (no download) and free to use on app.momentum-transfer.com Register for the webinar here: my.demio.com/ref/MXHJ3rGX...
First Dive into more systematic Data Handling greatly driven by @kenichiendo.bsky.social and Jürgen Pleiss from @crc1333.bsky.social ! Wont be the Last Time we visit Research Data Management.
New preprint! We worked with data scientist colleagues on how we can tidy up messy records of MOF syntheses and use them for ML. The keyword is "data model"! @esengulciftci.bsky.social @simonkrause.bsky.social chemrxiv.org/doi/full/10....
Very interesting event and great to see the different facets and the people behind them at @uniulm.bsky.social

And here we have our Fourier transform nr. 58! As far as I'm concerned, perhaps the most enigmatic and unexpected spectrum so far... anyway, quite a spectacle! #BraggYourPattern #Fouriertransform #crystallography As always, more on behance.net/specialdefects and instagram.com/specialdefects
While playing around with shapes I discovered another optical illusion: it looks like it's tilting while going inwards, doesn't it... 🧐 it's not — check the corners. Its Fourier spectrum is really unlike anything I've seen so far... will post it soon. #BraggYourPattern
