The companies TANIOBIS (formerly: HC Starck Tantalum & Niobium) and HC Starck Tungsten alternately sponsor the award for the best doctoral thesis in the field of inorganic Solid-State Chemistry and Materials Research . The prize is awarded annually by the Solid State Chemistry & Materials division of the German Chemical Society (GDCh). The award includes an award certificate and prize money of 5000 euros.
The price is currently not advertised.
The TANIOBIS PhD Award for solid-state chemistry and materials research was presented to Dr.-Ing Janett Schmelzer and Dr. Awarded to Nicolas Zapp.
Dr.-Ing. Janett Schmelzer "in recognition of her outstanding dissertation at the Otto von Guericke University Magdeburg entitled "Microstructure and properties of powder metallurgical manufactured V-rich V-Si-B alloys for high-temperature application". In her dissertation, Schmelzer describes a new approach to producing different alloy variants of vanadium-based multi-phase materials.By combining mechanical alloying with additive manufacturing in the form of laser deposition welding and selective laser beam melting in a powder bed, Dr. Schmelzer was able to produce vanadium/vanadium that was previously unknown and otherwise inaccessible. Represent, consolidate and fully characterize silicon/boron composites.The work, supported by numerical simulations, represents an outstanding contribution to the development of new high-temperature materials and to the improvement of the thermodynamic efficiency of gas turbines en possibilities that go beyond those of nickel-based superalloys."
dr Nicolas Zapp "in recognition of his outstanding dissertation entitled "Rare Earth Heteroanionic Hydrides with Secondary O 2 -, F -, and N 3 - Ions Related to the CaF 2 and K 2 NiF 4 Structure Types", which he wrote at the University of Leipzig. In his dissertation, Dr. Zapp describes the synthesis of complex heteroanionic compounds of rare earth elements. The hydride ion, which can be substituted by the similarly sized oxide, nitride and fluoride ions, plays a decisive role. He develops suitable synthetic routes and by combining analytical methods he succeeds in accurately determining the positions of the anions in the solids. In particular, the combination of X-ray and neutron diffraction leads to high-quality structure determinations. Dr. Zapp thus makes a significant contribution to our understanding of a very new class of substances supported by theoretical investigations at a high level. It is foreseeable that the results will inspire further work on this class of substances, leading to novel materials with previously unforeseeable properties."
The HC Starck Tungsten PhD Award award, donated by HC Starck Tungsten GmbH, for solid-state chemistry and materials research was presented to Dr. Luke May and Dr. Awarded to Philip Netzsch.
Dr. Lukas Mai in recognition of his outstanding dissertation entitled: "Investigation of Amino-Alkyl Coordinated Complexes as New Precursor Class for Atomic Layer Deposition of Aluminum, Tin and Zinc Oxide Thin Films and their Application" for the pioneering contributions to the development of a new one described therein Class of precursors for the deposition of atomic layers of binary metal oxides, especially aluminum oxide, at low temperatures. The dissertation was written in the working group of Prof. Dr. Anjana Devi at the Ruhr University Bochum.
Dr. Philip Netzsch in recognition of his outstanding dissertation entitled: "On Silicate-Analogous Materials - Synthesis and Characterization of Novel Borosulfates" for the pioneering contributions described therein to the systematic development of a large number of new borosulfates, the rationalization of the synthetic approach and the investigation of fascinating structures -Property relationships. The dissertation was written in the working group of Prof. Dr. Henning A. Höppe at the University of Augsburg.
The TANIOBIS PhD Award (formerly: HC Starck Tantalum & Niobium PhD Award Prize) for solid-state chemistry and materials research was given to OnlinePascal Cop awarded in recognition of his outstanding dissertation with the title: ?CeO 2 -based nanostructures as model catalysts for HCl oxidation?. Dr. Cop's creative, in-depth and future-oriented work on CeO 2 -based nanostructures represents excellent basic research and at the same time addresses a very topical and socially relevant topic, namely the maximization of the efficiency of chemical reactions, which, for example, enable efficient exhaust gas cleaning and are indispensable in large-scale industry. The HCl oxidation plays a very important role from an environmental point of view. Dr. Cop's investigations into the deactivation of the catalyst could in the future contribute to the optimization of catalyst materials for mass technologies and thus to the sustainability of various chemical processes. The dissertation was carried out in the working group of Prof. Dr. Bernd Smarsly at the Justus Liebig University in Gießen .
The HC Starck Tungsten PhD award 2019 for Solid-State Chemistry and Materials Research research was given in equal parts to Dr. Heidi Schwartz and Dr. Simon Kloß forgive.
Dr. Heidi Annemarie Schwartz received the award for her outstanding dissertation on the topic of "Metal-Organic Frameworks as Crystalline Porous Hosts for Photoactive Molecules" and for the pioneering work on structure-property relationships of organometallic framework compounds as crystalline, porous host structures for photoactive molecules.
Dr. Simon David Kloß was recognized for his outstanding dissertation on " The High-Pressure Metathesis Route for the Preparation of Rare-Earth and Transition Metal Nitridophosphates " and for the pioneering discoveries in the field of rare earth and transition metal nitridophosphates as well as for the development of a groundbreaking one new method of high pressure metathesis to open up new areas in nitridophosphate chemistry.
