[2] After finishing her MSc studies, she was awarded a scholarship by the Israeli Foreign Ministry, and spent half a year in Israel.

[citation needed] Moons was a postdoctoral researcher at École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne and at the Delft University of Technology.

Moons works to understand degradation mechanisms within emerging energy materials in an effort to improve device performance, stability and lifetime.

In particular, she helped to explain how the donor and acceptor domains that form within the active layers of solar cells during solution processing impact their performance.

[4] To interrogate the chemical composition of these domains, Moons has shown it is possible to combine atomic force microscopy with infrared spectroscopy.

To probe the bulk structure of the thin films, Moons uses dynamic secondary ion mass spectrometry.
