The new phase makes the materials suitable for the further development of screens, sensors and coatings.

Developers of paints and inks, and completely different disciplines, such as geology, will benefit from understanding this phenomenon.

Iron deficiency is one of the most common nutritional problems in the world. PhD candidate at Utrecht ľ¹Ï¸£ÀûÓ°ÊÓ Neshat Moslehi has invented compounds that could potentially be used for iron fortification of foods.

Professor earmarks his bequest for students in need

Highly successful sustainability focus session at Physics@Veldhoven

Researchers at Utrecht ľ¹Ï¸£ÀûÓ°ÊÓ and at TU Wien (Vienna) create special light waves that can penetrate even opaque materials as if the material was not even there.

The jury praises her interdisciplinary approach, her tireless quest for knowledge, and the industrial applications that emerge from her research on nanomaterials.

A key factor in the rapid spread of the so-called British coronavirus variant appears to be stronger attachments between the virus and human cells.

Physical experiments and computer simulations show how to pack a finite quantity of spheres in the most efficient way.

Danny Broere featured in a one-minute movie talking about ‘a chemical toolbox for the future’.

As of 1 February, Prof. Jan Lipfert is appointed Professor of Experimental Biophysics & Bio-Inspired Materials at the Department of Physics.

AMOLF and Utrecht ľ¹Ï¸£ÀûÓ°ÊÓ have been awarded a 1.9 M€ research project by NWO to develop radically new catalytic reactors using plasmonic systems.

Support for war refugees

The Max Planck Institute for Chemical Energy Conversion (MPI CEC) has awarded this year’s Max Planck Frontier Award to Prof. Bert Weckhuysen.

A broad partnership around solar fuels and chemistry receives a 4 million euro grant from the European Union’s Horizon funding programme. This enables the team to greatly strengthen the solar fuels and chemical community within Europe.

Utrecht researchers have developed a new type of sensor, about 500 times smaller than the width of a human hair.

SARS-CoV-2 virus particles can resist high physical forces. This determines partly their success, according to a publication of the new UU-professor Jan Lipfert in PNAS.

UU biophysicists have measured how the twist of DNA is affected by the presence of salt. The new knowledge is important for making nanomaterials.

Researchers around the world have been diving into 2D materials such as graphene, which can be used to generate a multitude of material properties using only very little material Graphene is the best known 2D material, but not the most useful.
