\n
Peter C. K. Vesborg is newly appointed Professor in Experimental Physics of Catalysis at DTU. He graduated as an engineer in 2006 and received his PhD in Physics in 2010. Following a postdoc at Stanford University he joined the faculty at DTU physics in 2012 where his research focus has been heterogeneous catalysis. Besides studying and developing thermal- electro- and photo-catalysts,
\nPeter has also maintained a strong focus on developing new and innovative methods for catalyst characterization such e.g. MEMS-based microreactors and electrochemical “sniffer”-devices. Very recently, in an ERC-starting grant project, a graphene-based cavity reactor design is being developed, which has the potential to increase chemical sensitivity by several orders of magnitude over the state of the art.
\nIn parallel, Peter has had active entrepreneurship eff orts resulting in three start-up companies in very diverse areas.
\nPeter was awarded the Reinholdt W. Jorck og Hustrus prize in 2017 and the H.C. Ørsted prize in 2018.
