The aim of this research area is to perform fundamental investigations of the electronic structure and chemical bonding for the development of new materials with improved properties. The studies are part of the generally application-inspired fundamental research at the Department of Physics, Chemistry and Biology (IFM) with processes, materials and phenomena that are also relevant to industry. Experimental work using advanced x-ray spectroscopies with synchrotron radiation is combined with integrated computational materials engineering for interpretation of the experimental data.

Materials of current interest are:

Layered MAX and MXene Materials

We study how atomic terminations, defects, and stacking order influence the band structure and charge distribution in 2D transition-metal carbides and nitrides (MXenes). Recent work has revealed how surface oxygen hybridization and interlayer coupling shape the Fermi surface topology and anisotropic transport in Ti3C2Tx MXene and related compounds.

Amorphous and Nanocomposite Thin Films

Amorphous transition-metal carbides and nitrides exhibit unique combinations of hardness and electrical conductivity. Using soft and hard X-ray emission and absorption spectroscopy, we probe local coordination, orbital occupation, and bond strength — comparing the results with stochastic quenching DFT and molecular dynamics models to test structural predictions.

Correlated Transition Metal Compounds

By applying resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS), X-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD), and polarization-resolved spectroscopy, we explore charge transfer, crystal-field splitting, and magnetic coupling in systems with strong electron correlation, such as superconducting and spintronic materials.

Wide Band-Gap Nitrides and Complex Thin Films

Our studies address how hybridization and orbital anisotropy determine the electronic gap and carrier mobility in nitride alloys. Through spectroscopy-guided modeling, we clarify how alloying, strain, and compositional ordering tune electronic and optical properties.

Gold-Bearing Minerals

In collaboration with geoscientists, we use synchrotron radiation to study Au-bearing minerals such as quartz, pyrite, pyrrhotite, magnetite, arsenopyrite, hematite, ilmenite, and chalcopyrite. The purpose is to increase the understanding of how Au can be extracted and purified in a more environmentally friendly way from host minerals. We determine which crystal structures, chemical bonding, grain sizes, vacancies, dislocations, and impurities of the minerals enabling them to form metallic and covalent chemical bonds with gold atoms. The purpose is to increase the understanding of how Au can be extracted and purified in a more environmentally friendly way from host minerals. By mapping the local electronic structure and bonding environment of trace elements, we contribute to more sustainable mineral extraction and recycling strategies.

Research Tools

Experimental techniques

Soft and hard X-ray absorption (XAS), emission (XES), photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), RIXS, XMCD, and EXAFS — primarily at international synchrotron facilities (MAX IV, ESRF, Diamond, NSLS-II, etc.).

Calculational methods

Density functional theory (DFT) and beyond-DFT methods (WIEN2k, Exciting, CASTEP, FEFF), together with ligand-field and charge-transfer multiplet calculations. Comparing measured and simulated spectra allows us to assign orbital symmetries, quantify hybridization, and validate structural models.

Scientific Highlights

Revealing the Quantum Landscape of MXenes

The Fermi surface and electronic band structure of a purely oxygen-terminated Ti3C2Tx MXene was investigated using synchrotron-based angular-resolved photoemission spectroscopy. The study shows how electrons move in this two-dimensional (2D) material with unprecedented precision and reveals Dirac-like electronic features, anisotropic charge transport, and a hexagonally warped Fermi surface that defies the usual insulating behavior of oxygen-terminated materials. These findings explain why oxygen-terminated MXenes remain metallic and open a pathway for tailoring their electronic and transport properties. This breakthrough provides fundamental insights into the quantum behavior of MXenes, advancing their use in energy storage, transparent conductors, and catalytic applications. Published in Physical Review Letters 134, 106201 (2025)

Uncovering How MXenes Interact with Hydrogen, Water, and Carbon Dioxide

This study shows how the two-dimensional (2D) material Ti3C2Tx MXene interacts with common gas molecules H2, H2O, and CO2 that are vital in energy conversion and storage technologies. Using ambient-pressure X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), it is directly observed how these gases adsorb and react on the MXene surface. The study shows that water binds strongly to the Ti-Ti bridge sites, effectively becoming a new termination species that influences how other molecules interact with the surface. The presence of water and oxygen terminations was found to inhibit CO2 adsorption but enable water splitting, revealing MXenes' potential in hydrogen production and catalysis. These findings provide critical insights into the surface chemistry and gas adsorption mechanisms of MXenes, offering practical guidance for optimizing their performance in energy storage, CO2 capture, and catalytic applications. Published in Applied Surface Science 684, 161926 (2025)

Unveiling the Electronic Fingerprints of MXenes for Future Energy Storage

This publication shows how MXenes, a class of two-dimensional materials, respond to electrochemical cycling in energy storage devices such as batteries and supercapacitors. Using high-resolution titanium 1s X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS), it is unraveled how subtle shifts in the Ti absorption edge reflect changes in the electronic structure during ion intercalation. The study reveals that these shifts originate not from changes in oxidation state, as previously thought, but from the involvement of Ti 4p orbitals in bonding with surface termination species. The results from analysis of the t2g-eg crystal-field splitting and radial distribution functions also reveal that the Ti-C bonds in MXenes are slightly weaker than in their three-dimensional MAX phase counterparts, but this is compensated by enhanced metallic bonding within the layers. These insights provide a more accurate understanding of MXene bonding, charge transport, and surface chemistry, all crucial for improving their performance in next-generation energy storage and conversion technologies.
