NOMAD CAMELS is our new open-source software that generates future-oriented research data in line with the FAIR principles in a simple way during experiments. FAIR stands for Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable, which are key criteria for the subsequent re-use of data. With CAMELS an...

F1 in schools is the largest technology competition for schools worldwide. Teams of 3-6 students design a miniature car and send it into the race. Similar to the big Formula 1, a comprehensive set of rules must be obeyed. The cars are powered by opening a CO2 cartridge, and the car then races along ...

The Chair of Applied Physics is one of the most traditional of its kind in Germany and celebrates its 75th anniversary this year. On this occasion, the chair, which has been a worldwide center of silicon carbide research since the late 1980s, is hosting an international symposium on "Silicon Carb...

Silicon carbide (SiC) has developed into a high-performance semiconductor technology in recent years. This goes hand in hand with excellent monocrystalline wafer material and continuously improving process technology as well as understanding of SiC’s fundamental material and device physics. However,...

Do our physics curricula provide the appropriate data management competences in a world where data are considered a crucial resource and substantial funding is available for building a national research data infrastructure (German: Nationale Forschungsdateninfrastuktur = NFDI)? Although basic data e...

Experiments are a key ingredient of materials science. Instruments are built, data are collected on a routine basis in every laboratory in universities, research institutes, and industrial sites, but often data is only used for answering a specific question in the hands of a local investigator. In t...

The new Research Training Group (RTG) 2861 of TU Dresden and FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg combines innovation and interdisciplinarity in research and education in the field of planar carbon lattices (PCL). It is one of eleven Research Training Groups nationwide that have currently been approved by the Germ...

How fast does a diode actually work? If it is operated under ideal conditions, it can be recharged up to 2 trillion times per second - until now, it has not been possible to go faster in conventional high-frequency circuits. Using a physical trick, a research team from Friedrich-Alexander-Universitä...

Prof. Krstić awarded Advisory Professorship at the Excellent Core "International Research Center for Silent Voice Sensing" at the Japan Institute of Science and Technology (JAIST) Due to his research activities and merits in the field of the electronic and optical properties of nano- and quantum-ma...
