Two-dimensional materials have enormous potential to enable components with a significantly smaller size and extended functionality compared to today's silicon technologies. To do this, however, 2D materials must be integrated into…

Motor proteins generate the forces for mechanical processes in our cells. On a scale of nanometers, i.e. a millionth of a millimeter, they drive our muscles or, among other things, transport substances within a cell. Erik Schäffer can…

There is no startup on the market that would not want to become a business unicorn but very few actually achieve this. What is behind their success: hidden knowledge, skills, or just luck? In a lecture, Dmitry Kulish, a PhD in biology, a…

To control a laser beam in a lab, scientists need lots of different equipment: special lenses, diffraction gratings, waveguides. They are all hard to manufacture. Controlled etching of a nanorelief on a glass surface turns a glass plate…

In RELENTLESS, the Gray Man’s search for missing intelligence agents plunges him deep into a maelstrom of trouble. The first agent disappearance was a puzzle. The second was a mystery. The third was a conspiracy.Intelligence operatives…
