What appears to be a normal room with computer stations is actually an important laboratory: For the application of Building Information Modeling (BIM) at the University of Wuppertal. The research contributes to successful construction projects – but there is an essential problem.
Students of archite…
Over 80 percent of the energy consumed worldwide is generated through combustion processes. According to current knowledge, this value will change little in the medium term. Combustion processes, which occur in industrial blast furnaces, household burners, carrier rockets, gas turbines, and engines…
Microtechnology is considered one of the key technologies of the 21st century. Without microtechnology, modern goods of industry are unthinkable: cars, smartphones, modern industrial production, life-saving medical technology – without microtechnology, none of this would work! As part of the project…
The Department of Aerospace Engineering at the Technical University (TU) Berlin is significantly involved in the planned Large Research Center European Research Institute for Space Resources (ERIS), which aims to develop new technologies for space and utilize them for sustainable living on Earth. Th…
The interaction of light and matter is responsible, for example, for plants conducting photosynthesis and solar cells generating electricity. The efficiency of light absorption in matter is determined on a microscopic scale by so-called transition dipole moments. The research group of Prof. Dr. Mart…
From experiments in cleanrooms to experiments in quantum physics to escape rooms that require physics knowledge: At the upcoming "MINT-EC-Camp" on the campus of the Technical University of Kaiserslautern (TUK), modern physics is the focus of lectures and interactive seminars. 22 selected students wi…
The path to new LED technologies is taken layer by layer and flooded with acid. Highly specialized cleanroom equipment is therefore needed to produce for example blue LEDs from gallium nitride (GaN) at the Institute of Semiconductor Technology. Two new large-scale instruments now open up further ave…
The electricity demand of IT infrastructures is continuously increasing, thereby increasingly harming the environment. To reduce their CO2 footprint, IT systems are therefore more frequently integrated into so-called microgrids that provide direct access to electricity from renewable energy sources…
Cleanroom in the new Forum of Technology offers an exclusive environment for scientific research. Microplastics are everywhere – but how can they be detected and studied? PhD student Emma-Elena Bratge and BA student Sofie Runnebohm give us insights into their work. In microplastic analysis, this spe…
With the InnoVET project BM=X³ funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research, training and further education in micro- and nanotechnology (MNT) are being elevated to a new level. BM=X³ stands for vocational education in micro- and nanotechnology through excellent careers, excellent learni…
