Short presentation
My research is generally focused on the synthesis and characterisation of novel bulk materials for energy storage and conversion, which I study in particular with different diffraction techniques, but also including absorption/desorption measurements and electrochemical methods. Main applications are within the hydrogen society (production, compression and storage) as well as magnetic materials.
I am the Director for the Swedish research school on neutron scattering (https://www.swedness.se/).
