HABILITATION The topic of his habilitation thesis was “Surface structural and reactivity studies using low energy electron diffraction” (“Untersuchung von Oberfla¨chenstrukturen und -reaktionen mittels Beugung langsamer Elektronen”). He had been granted one of the first commercial LEED-UHV machines in Germany and thus introduced the field that today is known as “surface science” in the country. The first groundbreaking paper already appeared in 1966 in the journal Surface Science (whose regional editor he was from 1977 to 1986) and dealt with surface structures and reactions on copper single crystal surfaces. 10/29/2007 NCCR 21
