Research Activities - Dr. Jabor Rabeah

Scientific and technical experiences

  • In situ and operando EPR spectroscopy
  • Catalysts preparation and characterization
  • Structure-reactivity relationships in catalysis
  • Simultaneous couplings of different spectroscopic techniques for monitoring homo- and heterogeneous catalytic reactions such as coupled operando EPR/XANES/ EXAFS/UV–vis/ATR–IR spectroscopy

Current research interest

  • Investigations of heterogeneous solid-gas phase reactions at elevated temperature by in-situ/operando spectroscopic methods such as selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NOx by NH3 and preferential oxidation of CO (PROX)
  • Monitoring alkene oligomerization reaction by in situ/operando methods at elevated temperature and pressure
  • Monitoring the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and other radical intermediates during photocatalytic reactions by in situ EPR using spin-trapping technique
  • Simultaneously couplings of several operando methods for monitoring liquid-gas catalytic reactions
  • Preparation and characterization of Vanadium phosphonate clusters
