Tamara Visch receives Best Poster Award in NEM Day 2026Piezoelectric thin films offer unique opportunities for adaptive functionality in MEMS applications and are a major research focus within the XUV Group. For her MSc thesis, Tamara Visch investigates the deposition of piezoelectric thin films using pulsed laser deposition. A key scientific challenge is understanding how deposition conditions influence the films' functional properties.Read more
