About
I am a materials chemist currently working as a postdoctoral researcher at Utrecht University, where my research focuses on light-emitting materials and phosphors for solid-state lighting. I completed my PhD at Ghent University, where I worked on the synthesis and photophysics of colloidal semiconductor nanocrystals for lasing and on mechanistic studies of nanocrystal growth. My research broadly explores how chemical synthesis, composition, and structure can be used to control optical properties and enable targeted applications. My interests include colloidal synthesis, light–matter interactions, function-driven materials design, and the development of solution-processable materials for next-generation light-emitting technologies.
