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…

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…
