“Sci­ence and bey­ond” – Doc­tor­ate’s meet­ing of TRR 142 young re­search­ers at UPB

On 10 November 22, the young researchers of TRR 142-3 came together for a doctorate’s meeting in the P8 building at UPB. Welcomed by Christine Silberhorn and Dirk Waldhoff, they could take a closer look into possible career paths in and outside academia and discussed the needs and possibilities on their way towards the PhD. Dirk Waldhoff and the coach/trainer Uta Stiene presented the especially tailored future coaching programme “Female…

Elec­tro­chem­ic­al per­form­ance of KTA – More than a photon­ic ma­ter­i­al?

The world needs more energy, preferably in a form that is clean and renewable. This requires sophisticated energy-storage strategies that go beyond the presently used lithium-ion batteries. In this context, there is an intense search for new electrode materials that provide high working voltages, thermal stability, and energy densities, as well as fast ion (de)intercalation.
