We welcome Jarik Böhmfeld as a chemistry master’s student who will conduct his thesis in our group. 

Jarik previously received his bachelor’s degree in chemistry. During his thesis, he examined the cation-sensitive photoluminescence properties of carbon-based quantum dots.

Building on his interest in physical chemistry, he focused during his research internships on the automated control of pulse energy for a tunable photodissociation laser setup, as well as on the temperature-dependent, time-resolved, and steady-state IR and photoluminescence characterization of a ruthenium complex and its ligand triplet-state reservoir effect for energy transfer.

In his most recent internship, he joined our group to help commission the breath-analysis setup, a duplicate of the system at Jena University Hospital.

In his free time, Jarik enjoys cycling and reading.
