Hellmut Eckert

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hellmut Eckert (* 1956 ) is a German chemist ( physical chemistry ). He is a professor at the University of Münster .

Eckert was in 1982 when Werner Müller-Warmuth (born 1929) in Münster PhD (dissertation was awarded the Promotion Prize of the University), worked as a post-graduate student from 1982 to 1984 at the Rutgers University and from 1984 to 1987 scientists at Caltech . In 1987 he became Assistant Professor, 1991 Associate Professor and 1993 Professor at the University of California, Santa Barbara . He has been a professor in Münster since 1995. He has also been Adjunct Professor at the University of California at Santa Barbara since 1996.

Eckert deals with NMR spectroscopy in solids (and the development of special devices and processes for it), the physical chemistry of the glass state, the structure and dynamics of solid ion conductors and the characterization of catalysis processes. In 2004 he discovered phosphorus nanorods with Arno Pfitzner and other phosphorus nanorods.

He has been a corresponding member of the North Rhine-Westphalian Academy of Sciences since 2012 . In 2002 he organized the Bunsentagung. Since 2001 he has headed the NRW Graduate School in Chemistry. In 1989 he received the Haber Prize from the German Bunsen Society. In 1995 he organized the 36th Experimental NMR Conference.

In 1991 he co-founded Solid State NMR .
