Interrupted by military service in World War II, American captivity and working as new teachers in Sebnitz, he took up the study again in 1949 and in 1955 with a thesis on Raman spectroscopic studies on the structure of tetrametaphosphates doctorate . In 1959 he was at the Technical University Dresden with his habilitation thesis Spectroscopic studies on the binding state to the amido derivatives of phosphoric habilitation and worked afterwards as a lecturer of Inorganic and General Chemistry at the Technical University of Dresden.
In 1962 he became professor with a teaching position for spectroscopy and in 1964 director of the Institute for Special Analytical Chemistry at the Technical University of Dresden . From 1969 to 1990 he worked as a full professor for physical chemistry at the chemistry section of the TU Dresden.
