Superamphiphobic surfaces for chemical processing (SuPro)

Start date: Mar 1, 2014, End date: Feb 28, 2019,

Superhydrophobic surfaces hold enormous promise as future self-cleaning or anti-fouling coatings. Their widespread use was, however, limited by contamination with oils and dissolved substances and insufficient mechanical stability. Superamphiphobic surfaces prevent contamination. They not only repel water but also non-polar liquids, surfactant and protein solutions. We recently developed a concept ...

Fundamentals Of Photocatalytic Splitting of Water (FOPS-water)

Start date: Mar 1, 2014, End date: Feb 28, 2019,

Hydrogen produced by sunlight is a very promising, environmentally-friendly energy source as an alternative for increasingly scarce and polluting fossil fuels. Since the discovery of hydrogen production by photocatalytic water dissociation on a titanium dioxide (TiO2) electrode 40 years ago, much research has been aimed at increasing the process efficiency. Remarkably, insights into how water is b ...

From Structure Property to Structure Process Property Relations in Soft Matter – a Computational Physics Approach (MOLPROCOMP)

Start date: Feb 1, 2014, End date: Jan 31, 2019,

"From cell biology to polymer photovoltaics, (self-)assembly processes that give rise to morphology and functionality result from non-equilibrium processes, which are driven by both, external forces, such as flow due to pressure gradients, inserting energy, or manipulation on a local molecular level, or internal forces, such as relaxation into a state of lower free energy. The resulting material i ...

Female Investigators in Nonlinear Optical Nanoscopy - FINON (FINON)

Start date: Oct 1, 2013, End date: Sep 30, 2017,

The aim of this ITN is to take the category of Nonlinear Optical Microscopy (NOM) techniques into the nano-dimension, allowing for label-free three-dimensional (3D), dynamic imaging of macromolecular arrangements and nanostructures by probing inherent higher-order electronic and molecular vibrations with novel detection concepts. Specific S&T objectives are to (A) explore the use of nano-sized sca ...

Molecular Quantum Spintronics (MoQuaS)

Start date: Oct 1, 2013, End date: Sep 30, 2016,

MoQuaS aims at developing devices and protocols to read out and process quantum information using individual molecular spins embedded in electronic circuits. To this end, prototypical hybrid nano-devices addressing single molecular spins will be designed and reliable methods for their realization will be developed. Core of such nano-architectures are magnetic molecules, specifically functionalized ...

Building a European NanoPhononics Community (EUPHONON)

Start date: Nov 1, 2013, End date: Oct 31, 2014,

The aim of this project is to amalgamate the existing and future activities on phonon science and technology in Europe to establish a strong community in this emerging research field. The impact of EUPHONON will extend from academia to ICT-related industry by providing means for thermal management, optimisation of data handling and, in longer term, new methods for material characterisation and new ...
