Research activities

Currently, the main lines of research at the Atomic Physics and Surface Science group are:

• Structure and Dynamics of solid surfaces.
• Elemental processes involved in the adsorption and growth.
• Fabrication of nanostructures at surfaces and the characterization of their physical and chemical properties.
• Interaction of ions with matter.
• Development of ion scattering techniques for surface and thin film analysis.

Have a look at our projects and equipment. For more information you may consult our on-line publications.

In collaboration with other research groups we also pursue projects on

• Adsorption, structure and mobility of gases in carbon nanotubes
• Electronic excitations and energy loss of ions traversing matter
