ERC Synergy Grants for Thomas Pichler and Markus Aspelmeyer The physicist Thomas Pichler and his international team will receive an ERC Synergy Grant of 14 million Euros to build a new electron nano

A completely new method of producing extremely short and high-energy laser pulses was developed at TU Wien.

A research team from Garching and Vienna discovered a remarkable echo effect - it offers exciting new possibilities for working with quantum information.

By Christoph Pelzl The physicist receives the renowned prize for her project to investigate the interaction between UV light and matter in spectral ranges that have not yet been extensively researched.

What happens when you pull a DNA molecule? It behaves quite differently than we are used to from macroscopic objects.

By Birgit Baustädter Peter Pichler from TU Graz's Institute of Experimental Physics is researching liquid metal.

By Christoph Pelzl The researcher receives the science prize worth up to 1.2 million euros for her work on a new measurement technology that enables UV-light-induced chemical processes to be investigated with unprecedented detail.

In recent decades, semiconductor technologies have been shrinking, while the operating frequencies and integration density of modern integrated circuits have increased significantly.

When it comes to nanotechnology, nature is truly the most successful researcher. Whereas we are still struggling with large-scale production of three-dimensional, nano-sized materials, nature perfected this task in viruses long before the dawn of humanity.

Online simulation game makes graphene research available to the public The team of Toma Susi at the University of Vienna uses a state-of-the-art electron microscope, the UltraSTEM, to manipulate strongly bound materials with atomic precision.

Von Katharina Kocher, Kurt Mayer, Bernhard Marius, Bernd Cermenek, Viktor Hacker, Sigrid Wolf Finding the optimal combination of high performance and durability is a key factor in the realisation of future sustainable energy production systems.

Reliability is a wide-ranging subject in microelectronics, covering responses to different kinds of stress as well as measures to increase devices' tolerance against them.

By Birgit Baustädter Max Burian uses bright light to look deep into the core of matter. He works in a silver laboratory container next to the Elettra synchrotron particle accelerator in Trieste, Italy.

By Birgit Baustädter Advent at TU Graz is not exactly peaceful. It is tradition that Gernot Pottlacher gives an experimentation lecture - this year he explored the phase diagram, accompanied by bubbles, bangs and bursts.

By Raffaele Ricco Metal-Organic Frameworks, also known as MOFs, are attractive porous materials with huge implications for both basic and applied research.

By Hermann Scharfetter The FETopen CONQUER project launched at TU Graz three years ago was successfully completed by August 31st 2018.

A new Christian Doppler Laboratory at TU Wien is expected to contribute to the next storage revolution within IT.

By Birgit Baustädter Günter Brenn investigates the behaviour of gas bubbles and liquid drops. His work is especially important in process engineering.

With a 3 million euro endowment, comes a new European research network headed by TU Wien. The goal: a device that can analyze specific entangled quantum states.

By Vera Haberfellner In New Zealand he prospected for gold. In Graz Andreas Hauser and his colleague Markus Koch have developed a device which can recover non-ferrous metals from waste.

To produce images of individual atoms, a microscope shouldn't shake. A patented vibration damping system developed at the TU Wien enables images of the highest quality.

Researchers at the University of Vienna and the Austrian Academy of Sciences develop a new theoretical framework to describe how causal structures in quantum mechanics transform.

When a crystal is broken along certain directions the atoms reorganize in amazing ways. Researchers in Vienna have watched this happen, and have learned to control it.

The China Seismo-Electromagnetic satellite will be launched into near-Earth space in the early hours of 2nd February 2018.

Microscopically small particles can spontaneously self-assemble into complex layered structures with remarkable properties, according to calculations performed at the TU Wien.

By Thomas Hochrainer The relative ease of plastically deforming metallic materials is a prerequisite for their widespread application in mechanical engineering.
