Unique polymer fibres that are strong, tough and light as a feather

Strong and tough yet as light as a feather – materials with this exceptional combination of properties are urgently needed in many industrial sectors and in medicine, as well as being of great interest for scientific research. A research team from the University of Bayreuth has now developed polymer fibres with precisely these properties. Together

Atomic Schrodingers cat states reach 20 qubits on the road to quantum computing

Researchers report new record with entangled quantum bits in “Science” Dead or alive, left-spinning or right-spinning – in the quantum world particles such as the famous analogy of Schrödinger’s cat can be all these things at the same time. An international team, including researchers from several leading American universities, together with experts from Forschungszentrum Jülich,

Revolutionizing molecular microscopy with previously unattainable precision and speed

Control Engineers of the Otto von Guericke University Magdeburg, in collaboration with colleagues from the Jülich Research Center, have developed a method for measuring the electrical potentials of molecules and molecular surfaces with previously unattainable precision and speed. With what is known as Scanning Quantum Dot Microscopy, they have, for the first time, succeeded in creating

Artificial synapses made from nanowires function in much the same way as a biological nerve cell

Scientists from Jülich together with colleagues from Aachen and Turin have produced a memristive element made from nanowires that functions in much the same way as a biological nerve cell. The component is able to both save and process information, as well as receive numerous signals in parallel. The resistive switching cell made from oxide

Iron–air batteries promise a considerably higher energy density than present-day lithium-ion batteries

Jülich researchers show charging and discharging reactions during operation with nanometre precision Iron–air batteries promise a considerably higher energy density than present-day lithium-ion batteries. In addition, their main constituent – iron – is an abundant and therefore cheap material. Scientists from Forschungszentrum Jülich are among the driving forces in the renewed research into this concept,

ReRAM memory chips perform computing tasks, greatly increases computing speed and saves energy

A team of international scientists have found a way to make memory chips perform computing tasks, which is traditionally done by computer processors like those made by Intel and Qualcomm. This means data could now be processed in the same spot where it is stored, leading to much faster and thinner mobile devices and computers.

From Leaf to Tree: Large-Scale Artificial Photosynthesis

Researchers create the first practical design for photoelectrochemical water splitting Scientists from Forschungszentrum Jülich have developed the first complete and compact design for an artificial photosynthesis facility. This is a decisive step towards applying the technology. The concept is flexible both with respect to the materials used and also the size of the system. The

Silicon-air battery achieves running time of over 1,000 hours for the first time

Finally Up and Running Silicon-air batteries are viewed as a promising and cost-effective alternative to current energy storage technology. However, they have thus far only achieved relatively short running times. Jülich researchers have now discovered why. In theory, silicon-air batteries have a much higher energy density and are also smaller and lighter than current lithium-ion
