Research Highlight: Work of our two PIs Marco Salvalaglio and Axel Voigt on templated dewetting published in Nature Communications
Large-scale, defect-free, micro- and nano-circuits with controlled inter-connections represent the nexus between electronic and photonic components. Through a synergic theoretical and experimental investigation, arrays of parallel ultra-long (up to 0.75 mm), monocrystalline, silicon-based nanowires, and complex, connected circuits are obtained exploiting low-resolution etching and annealing of thin silicon films on insulator. Phase-field simulations, predicting both…
New DCMS PI: Dr. Marco Salvalaglio
Dr. Marco Salvalaglio (Ph.D. in Materials Science, 2016, University of Milano-Bicocca) is a theoretical material scientist, working at the crossroads between solid-state physics, computational material science and applied mathematics. He is a Research Fellow at the Institute of Scientific Computing at the Mathematics Department of TU-Dresden, which he first joined as an Alexander von Humboldt…

MoU with Materials Genome Initiative Center (MaGIC) signed
On September 27, 2019, we signed a “Memorandum of Understanding” (MoU) with the “Materials Genome Initiative Center“ (MaGIC) at der Shanghai Jiao Tong University (SJTU). The goal of intensifying our partnership is to take advantage of the complementary synergies of DCMS and MaGIC and to establish an internationally leading research cluster in data-driven materials research….
Seminar Dr. Lorna Stimson (Wiley Germany): A New Era for Open Research
The last year has seen an intensification of discussions about the transition to open access publishing, particularly in Europe. In January 2019, a transformational agreement was announced between Wiley and Projekt DEAL, which represents the German research community. The contract describes a “Publish and Read” model under which German research institutions are eligible for read…
