Dr. Kasper Pedersen

Professor

Biography

Kasper Steen Pedersen is a Professor at the Technical University of Denmark, specializing in inorganic chemistry and related disciplines. His research encompasses the synthesis of exotic complexes involving d- and f-block elements, and advanced spectroscopies. His primary focus lies in the discovery and development of materials related to metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and inorganic solids, particularly emphasizing the concept of 'redox non-innocence' in these materials. He aims to synthetically tailor the electronic, optical, and magnetic properties of metal-organic materials. His work addresses the understanding of molecular structures and their correlations with macroscopic physical properties via an array of advanced spectroscopic techniques conducted at synchrotron and neutron facilities. He actively supervises PhD students and leads several projects pertaining to the structural characterization and design of redox-active metal-organic frameworks, contributing significantly to the field of materials science and chemistry.
