We are the Junior Research Group HTP‑Gas at the Institute of Nanotechnology and InnovationLab GmbH (Heidelberg), working at the intersection of heterojunction thin‑film devices, printed electronics, and functional materials for health and environmental sensing. Our research combines metal–organic frameworks (MOFs), metal oxides, and hybrid heterojunction devices with scalable fabrication methods such as inkjet printing and thin‑film deposition to realize advanced resistive and capacitive gas, VOC, and biomarker sensors on rigid and flexible platforms.

By tailoring materials, interfaces, and device architectures, we aim to bridge the gap between fundamental functional‑materials research and application‑oriented VOC sensor systems.

We develop materials, devices, and intelligent sensing systems for gas and VOC detection.

1. Functional & Printed Sensing Materials

• MOFs, metal oxides, polymers, and nanocomposites for selective gas and VOC detection
• Printed and ultra‑thin heterojunction films with controlled morphology and interfaces

2. Device Platforms & Integration

• Capacitive and resistive gas sensors on chips and flexible substrates
• Inkjet‑printed electronic‑nose arrays and multi‑modal sensing platforms for health and environmental monitoring

3. Data‑Driven Sensing & Applications

• Physics‑based models and data‑driven methods (including AI/ML) for process-structure-propert-performance correlation
• Application demonstrators for plant‑disease VOC fingerprints, indoor air‑quality monitoring, and wearable exposure/health sensing
