Birgit Stiller is an independent group leader at the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light. Previously, she has been a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Sydney in Australia for 4 years on the subject of integrated photonic circuits. Before that, she was a postdoc in quantum optics...
Product design is the formation, formulation, handling, manufacturing and characterization of complex multiphase products across all length scales from molecules to particles and complex materials and devices. The desired product properties follow the demands of a variety of applications. These incl...
The i-MEET, namely the Institute Materials for Electronics and Energy Technology, is dedicated to the functional aspect of electronic properties and applicability of different material classes. One research focus is the synthesis, characterization and processing of nanocrystals for optoele...
The year 2021 was the 30th anniversary of the initial proposal by Philip Russell for a novel type of optical fiber that would guide light by the newly-proposed photonic bandgap effect: photonic crystal fibers (PCF). Compared to conventional step-index fibers, the very first solid-core PCF, with arra...
After finishing a doctoral program at ETH Zurich in 2000, Bernd Witzigmann has spent 4 years in industrial research in the US, which then was followed by an assistant professorship at ETH Zurich in the electrical engineering department again. From 2008 to 2021, he has been heading the Computational ...
Philip Russell is an emeritus founding Director at the Max-Planck Institute for the Science of Light and was formerly Krupp Professor of Experimental Physics at the Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU). He obtained his doctorate at the University of Oxford in 1979, and has worked ...
For her latest publication “Tailoring the Nature of Interface States in Efficient and Stable Bilayer Organic Solar Cells by a Transfer-Printing Technique”, Rong Wang developed a novel fabrication method, which enables solar cells containing two layers with a sharply defined planar interface. By regu...
Rong Wang recently published on “Understanding the Microstructure Formation of Polymer Films by Spontaneous Solution Spreading Coating with a High-Throughput Engineering Platform”.
She presents an automated workflow for the preparation and optical characterization of polymer films used in optoel...
In her publication “Utilizing the unique charge extraction properties of antimony tin oxide nanoparticles for efficient and stable organic photovoltaics”, Chao Liu presents a new and simple strategy in developing advanced interface materials for organic solar cells.
By adding the metalloid antimo...
Albert These worked on the “Characterization of Aerosol Deposited Cesium Lead Tribromide Perovskite Films on Interdigited ITO Electrodes”. He showed that aerosol deposition can be used to fabricate semiconducting perovskite films at low cost. The devices showed good electrical transport properties ...
