ERC Consolidator Grant for Dr Felix GunkelDr Felix Gunkel, Associate Professor at IMS/MESA+ at the University of Twente and group leader in the Electronic Materials division at the Peter Grünberg Institute of Forschungszentrum Jülich (FZJ), has been awarded an ERC Consolidator Grant for his research project “Scrambled Oxs”. In this project, he develops new materials that can make the splitting of water into hydrogen and oxygen more efficient and more affordable. As hydrogen is a promising clean energy carrier, the research has strong relevance for the global energy transition.Read more
Controlling quantum states in germaneneResearchers at the University of Twente and Utrecht University demonstrated for the first time that quantum states in the ultra-narrow material germanene can be switched on and off using only an electric field. The researchers were able to vary the electric field strength very precisely, causing the special 'topological' states in nanoribbons to disappear or appear.Read more
