Funktion und Aufgaben:
With Josi Holtz, I am helping to run the ICPMS facilities of the HELGES laboratories, including ICP-OES, iCAP Q, Element 2 and Neptune. Working with Dr. Patrick Frings and Jutta Schlegel who are responsible for Clean laboratory, we focus on quantifying element concentrations and metal(loid) isotope ratios in a diverse range of environmental and geological matrices by both solution and in-situ (with our advanced Femtosecond Laser Ablation) analytical methods. We always welcome new projects both collaborative and commercial.
Wissenschaftliche Interessen:
- Isotope geochemistry in minerals and biominerals.
- Geochemistry (trace elements and U-O-Hf isotopes etc.) of detrital minerals.
- Evolution of the Early Archean crust.
- Development of analytical methods.
