Lars Bannenberg is currently an associate professor in the Storage of Electrochemical Energy (SEE) group at the Reactor Institute Delft. He completed his Bachelor and Master degrees in Applied Physics and Financial Economics, followed by a PhD focused on chiral magnetism. His research primarily addresses energy materials, including hydrogen sensing materials, battery materials, and solar cell materials, with a strong emphasis on the relationship between functional and structural properties of these materials. He extensively utilizes neutron and X-ray scattering/spectroscopy techniques while working with thin films. Bannenberg also serves as the instrument scientist for the neutron reflectometer, where he ensures optimal conditions for experiments and supports scientists across various disciplines in utilizing this powerful technique. His research on hydrogen sensors involves thin film metal hydrides, exploring their properties in new applications such as solid electrolytes and switchable mirrors. Bannenberg's teaching and supervision responsibilities include the Nuclear Science and Technology course as part of the applied physics BSc program, with a focus on nuclear science fundamentals and medical imaging applications.
