Welcome to the Radiochemistry Group!
Our work focuses on the solid state and coordination chemistry of actinides, lanthanides and technetium, with the aim of enhancing our understanding of their chemical behavior and potential applications. We cover work in solid state chemistry delving into the structural and functional properties of materials used in the nuclear sector. We study the coordination chemistry of traditional inorganic complexes and organometallic compounds.
Utilizing cutting-edge techniques in diffraction, microscopy and spectroscopy we explore the redox chemistry and the electronic, micro, and bulk structure of molecules and solid phases. We are committed to developing innovative solutions for the safe and effective disposal of nuclear waste, exploring strategies for the immobilization of radioactive elements generated in the late stages of the nuclear fuel cycle.
