Frank de Groot is a Professor at the Debye Institute for Nanomaterials Science at Utrecht University. His research interests encompass materials chemistry and catalysis, with a focus on X-ray spectroscopy and electronic structure theory. De Groot's work emphasizes both theoretical and experimental aspects, particularly in resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS), which allows for the observation of magnetic transitions. His investigations include studying the electronic and magnetic structures of condensed matter, specifically in transition metal oxides and thin oxide layers under catalytic conditions. A notable aspect of his research is the CTM4XAS program he developed for simulating X-ray spectroscopy outputs. De Groot's contributions to the field are instrumental in advancing the understanding of core level spectroscopy in solids and its applications in materials science.
