We are interested in crystalline matter. We develop new approaches based on hyperpolarized Nuclear Magnetic Resonance to study the structure of polymorphic powders at natural isotopic abundance and polymorph formation from solution.

Research topics

Solid-state NMR methods

NMR experiments for solid materials

NMR for crystallization

NMR to study crystallization from solution

NMR crystallography

NMR for structure determination of powders

Pierre was at the Euromar 2023 in Glasgow where he gave a presentation on the use of MAS DNP for the early detection of polymorphic transformations in organic solids.

07/2023: Raffaella Demichelis visiting the lab

Prof Raffaella Demichelis from Curtin University in Australia visited the lab. She gave a beautiful talk on “Chemistry at the mineral-fluid interface: an atomic-scale perspective”, very interesting topic and results. Thanks Raffaella!
