Materials Sciences

Materials management deals with the research, development, manufacturing and processing of raw and industrial materials. Key aspects here are biological and medical issues, which play an increasingly important role in this field.

innovations-report offers in-depth articles related to the development and application of materials and the structure and properties of new materials.

Nature as a model in semiconductor research

DFG funds International Research Training Group at University of Bayreuth. The University of Bayreuth, together with two Australian partner universities, the University of Melbourne and Monash University, is establishing a…

Material separates water from … water

A flipping action in a porous material facilitates the passage of normal water to separate it out from heavy water. A research group led by Susumu Kitagawa of Kyoto University’s…

Designing next-generation metals, one atom at a time

Direct visualization of metal atoms during shear deformation has applications from batteries to lightweight vehicles. How can studying metals manufacturing lead to longer-lasting batteries and lighter vehicles? It all comes…

Ceramics that breathe oxygen at lower temperatures

… help us breathe cleaner air. Although much of the discourse on reducing vehicle emissions centres on electric vehicles (EV), their sales remain low – with EV vehicles accounting for…

AI predicts properties of complex metamaterials

Floppy or not: Given a 3D piece of origami, can you flatten it without damaging it? Just by looking at the design, the answer is hard to predict, because each…

Metamaterial for the terahertz age

Quantum materials enable next-generation photonics and mobile networks in the terahertz regime. Terahertz light, radiation in the far-infrared part of the emission spectrum, is currently not fully exploited in technology,…
