  Picture of the month: Self-assembled honeycomb network of carboxyl-substituted triphenylamine derivates on Au (111)

  01. August 2017 – Molecular self-assembly is a key concept in nanoscience allowing for the construction of complex molecular architectures in a bottom-up approach. We are carrying out in-depth studies on the subtle balance between intermolecular and molecule-surface interactions, and on how it affects the structure... more »

  Picture of the month: ›Carpathian morning‹: ZnCdS:Mn@ZnS core-shell down-shifting nanocrytsals on top of a a Si solar cell

  03. July 2017 – The low efficiencies of inorganic solar cells in the ultraviolet (UV) and blue spectral region are key factors which restrict their power conversion efficiency (PCE). A simple and reliable technological step to overcome these limitations is the coating of the solar cells by UV-light conversion... more »

  Picture of the month: Fivehold twinned microstructure determines the properties of nanowires in transparent electrodes

  01. April 2017 – Fivefold twinned silver nanowires play an important role in EAM Research Area B where they are used in flexible and stretchable electronics, e.g., as transparent electrodes in printed solar cells. Atomistic simulations performed in Research Area A3 showed that their unique structure leads to a... more »
