New postdoc at the Max Planck Institute

Starting March 15, 2026, I begin a new postdoc at the Max Planck Institute for Solid State Research (MPI-FKF, Stuttgart), in collaboration with Kelvin Anggara.

My work focuses on the development of ESIBD instrumentation — soft landing of molecular ions from an electrospray — coupled with scanning probe microscopy (SPM) to image molecules one by one on surfaces under ultra-high vacuum.
